Interpreting WebRTC Voice SDKs Debug Data

This is a beta feature with limited availability by SDK type. Data schema and presentation may change without notice.
To make full use of this guide, the reader is encouraged to complete the following steps in order to have a real world example to follow along.
  1. Initiates an outbound call from a properly configured https://webrtc.telnyx.com/ with debug enabled and data sent over socket.
  2. Locate the debug data.
  3. Upload the data to https://webrtc-debug.telnyx.com/.

​
Peer Configuration

This section provides data on the configuration of the RTCPeerConnection. If prefetchIceCandidates is disabled, the pool size is set to 0. Otherwise, it’s set to 255. If forceRelayCandidate is enabled, then transport policy will be set to relay. Lastly, by default, Telnyx SDKs use the following endpoints to gather ICE candidates.
  • stun.l.google.com
  • stun.telnyx.com
  • turn.telnyx.com

​
ICE Candidates & Candidate Pair

This section lists out all the ICE candidates gathered prior to a call is established. There will always be one remote-candidate of host type offered. This represents the Telnyx’s end of the peer connection. There will always be multiple local-candidate offered unless relay candidate was configured to be used. For a call to be successfully established, at least one local-candidate of the following type must be present:
  • prflx
  • srflx
  • relay
host candidate type cannot be used to establish peer connection over the internet. If no viable local-candidate are present, it’s highly likely that the SDK client is located on a very restrictive network where all UDP traffic is blocked and access to certain endpoints (turn.telnyx.com) are not allowed. Barring that, there will be one pair of ICE candidates used for this call.

​
RTT

A high RTT value provides clues to voice delay.

​
Packets Lost

A high packet lost value provides clues to skipped audio.

​
Jitter

A high jitter value provides clues to inconsistent audio quality throughout the call.

Other Useful Data

If the user is experiencing one way audio, it’s worth checking inbound and outbound audio level to corroborate the user’s claim.
