Sets the TTL (time-to-live) value of the RTCP stream providing feedback from the client. The value is a number ranging from 1 to 255. The default value is 32.
object.SetTTL TTL
Parameter Description TTL Specifies the routing lifetime of audio packets. Any integer from 1 through 255 is valid, but the following values are standard on most networks.
Value Description 1 Local network routing only. 32 Corporate intranet routing only. This is the default value. 128 Routing across the Internet. 255 Route forever.
This method does not return a value.
As packets are sent through routers, the TTL value is decremented by 1. When the value is 0, the packets are dropped. Use the lowest value possible to prevent packets from being routed too long.
Example
The following code example shows how to use the SetTTL method to set the TTL. The audio control object is called rtpaudio. When the method is called, the TTL is set to 1 to indicate that the packets should not be routed beyond the local router.
call rtpaudio.SetTTL(1)
