Admin TURN

Read TURN relay statistics and active allocations.

Admin TURN is one of the server administration windows. Open it from the Admin group of the Start menu. It opens as a desktop window you can drag, resize, minimize to the taskbar, and close with its title-bar X.

What it shows

Two read-only panes: relay statistics and the allocations currently held. If no TURN relay is configured the stats pane says so rather than showing zeros.

Snapshots, not a feed

The numbers are from the last time Refresh ran. Nothing here updates on its own.

What TURN Is For

Calls and file transfers try to connect two browsers directly. Some networks block that. In that case the connection goes through the TURN relay on this server, and every relayed call uses the server's bandwidth. This window shows how much the relay is in use.

How to Open and Read It

  1. Open the Start menu, then Admin, then TURN.
  2. The Stats pane shows the relay address, the listen port, the number of listeners, the active allocations and how many relay ports are in use.
  3. The Allocations pane lists each active allocation: the client address and the relay port it holds.
  4. Click Refresh to load new numbers.

Rules and Limits

  • The window opens with a snapshot taken when it opened. Only server administrators can press Refresh.
  • It has no settings. The relay is configured on the server, not here.
  • The same numbers are available as commands:
/admin turn stats
/admin turn allocations
