This specification defines a protocol, called TURN (Traversal Using Relays around NAT), that allows the host to control the operation of the relay and to exchange packets with its peers using the relay. This specification defines a protocol, called "Traversal Using Relays around NAT" (TURN), that allows the host to control the operation of the relay and to exchange packets with its peers using the relay. Example. It is a standard method of NAT traversal used in WebRTC. It is defined in IETF RFC 5766. In these situations, it is necessary for the host to use the services of an intermediate node that acts as a communication relay. TURN differs from other relay control protocols in that it allows a client to communicate with multiple peers using a single relay address.

On-line management interface (over telnet or over HTTPS) for the TURN server is available. It may be used with the Transmission Control Protocol (TCP) and User Datagram Protocol (UDP). Traversal Using Relays around NAT (TURN) is a protocol used by multimedia applications to traverse NAT.

When this host wants to receive an incoming connection from another party, it provides this public IP address as a possible location where it can receive a connection. This specification defines a protocol, called "Traversal Using Relays around NAT" (TURN), that allows the host to control the operation of the relay and to exchange packets with its peers using the relay. It can be used as a general-purpose network traffic TURN server and gateway, too. TURN differs from other relay control protocols in that it allows a client to communicate with multiple peers using a single relay address. TURN differs from other relay control protocols in that it allows a client to communicate with multiple peers using a single relay address. Traversal Using Relays around NAT (TURN): Relay Extensions to Session Traversal Utilities for NAT (STUN), RFC 5766; Session Traversal Utilities for NAT (STUN), RFC 5389; Traversal Using Relays around NAT (TURN) Resolution Mechanism, RFC 5928; Re-INVITE and Target-Refresh Request Handling, RFC 6141, chpt. Alternatives. Traversal Using Relays around NAT (TURN) is a protocol that assists in traversal of network address translators (NAT) or firewalls for multimedia applications. This specification defines a protocol, called "Traversal Using Relays around NAT" (TURN), that allows the host to control the operation of the relay and to exchange packets with its peers using the relay. SDP — RFC 4566 implementation that includes extra support for ICE headers. If a host is located behind a NAT, then in certain situations it can be impossible for that host to communicate directly with other hosts (peers). It is most useful for clients on networks masqueraded by symmetric NAT devices.
