This is an experimental technology
Because this technology's specification has not stabilized, check the compatibility table for usage in various browsers. Also note that the syntax and behavior of an experimental technology is subject to change in future versions of browsers as the specification changes.
The RTCSctpTransport
interface provides information which describes a Stream Control Transmission Protocol (SCTP) transport. This provides information about limitations of the transport, but also provides a way to access the underlying Datagram Transport Layer Security (DTLS) transport over which SCTP packets for all of an RTCPeerConnection
's data channels are sent and received.
You don't create RTCSctpTransport
objects yourself; instead, you get access to the RTCSctpTransport
for a given RTCPeerConnection
through its sctp
property.
Possibly the most useful property on this interface is its maxMessageSize
property, which you can use to determine the upper limit on the size of messages you can send over a data channel on the peer connection.
Properties
The RTCSctpTransport
interface doesn't inherit any properties.
RTCSctpTransport.maxMessageSize
Read only- An integer value indicating the maximum size, in bytes, of a message which can be sent using the
RTCDataChannel.send()
method. RTCSctpTransport.transport
Read only- An
RTCDtlsTransport
object representing the DTLS transport used for the transmission and receipt of data packets.
Methods
The RTCSessionDescription
doesn't inherit any methods and has no methods of its own.
Example
