    RTCPeerConnection()

    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 RTCPeerConnection() constructor returns a newly-created RTCPeerConnection, which represents a connection between the local device and a remote peer.

    Syntax

    pc = new RTCPeerConnection([configuration]);

    Parameters

    configuration Optional
    An RTCConfiguration dictionary providing options to configure the new connection.

    RTCConfiguration dictionary

    bundlePolicy Optional
    Specifies how to handle negotiation of candidates when the remote peer is not compatible with the SDP BUNDLE standard. This must be one of the values from the enum RTCBundlePolicy. If this value isn't included in the dictionary, "balanced" is assumed.
    certificates Optional
    An Array of objects of type RTCCertificate which are used by the connection for authentication. If this property isn't specified, a set of certificates is generated automatically for each RTCPeerConnection instance. See Using certificates below for additional information.
    This configuration option cannot be changed after it is first specified; once the certificates have been set, this property is ignored in future calls to RTCPeerConnection.setConfiguration().
    iceCandidatePoolSize Optional
    An unsigned 16-bit integer value which specifies the size of the prefetched ICE pool. The default value is 0 (meaning no candidate prefetching will occur). You may find in some cases that connections can be established more quickly by allowing the ICE agent to start fetching ICE candidates before you start trying to connect, so that they're already available for inspection when RTCPeerConnection.setLocalDescription() is called.
    iceServers Optional
    An array of RTCIceServer objects, each describing one server which may be used by the ICE agent; these are typically STUN and/or TURN servers.
    iceTransportPolicy Optional
    The current ICE transport policy; this must be one of the values from the RTCIceTransportPolicy enum. If this isn't specified, "all" is assumed.
    peerIdentity Optional
    A DOMString which specifies the target peer identity for the RTCPeerConnection. If this value is set (it defaults to null), the RTCPeerConnection will not connect to a remote peer unless it can successfully authenticate with the given name.
    rtcpMuxPolicy Optional
    The RTCP mux policy to use when gathering ICE candidates. The value must be one of those from the RTCRtcpMuxPolicy enum. The default is "require".

    Return value

    A newly-created RTCPeerConnection object, configured as described by configuration, if specified; otherwise, configured to appropriate basic defaults.
