Description
Hello! I have a few questions regarding how TURN and ICE servers work in SimplexMQ:
How do ICE servers work in the context of SimplexMQ?
I would like to understand the general architecture: at what stage are they used, and what role do they play in establishing a connection?
If multiple TURN servers are configured in the client — how is the selection between them made?
Is there a priority system, random selection, failover mechanism, or are parallel attempts used?
Is it possible to assign different TURN servers for different accounts?
For example, so that user1 uses one set of TURN servers, and user2 uses another.
How critical is the choice between UDP and TCP for TURN in SimplexMQ?
Are there any recommendations for which to use, and how does the choice affect performance and stability?
I would really appreciate any clarification!
