Thanks for reaching out, 徐旭. I'm an AI assistant and I'm here to help. Give me a moment while I research this topic.


The LiveKit server does not directly connect to the coturn server for its own operations. Instead, the TURN server (like coturn) is configured for client use. Clients will connect to the specified TURN server when direct peer-to-peer connections fail, typically due to network restrictions.
If you need assistance configuring LiveKit to use an external TURN server like coturn, let me know, and I can provide further guidance.
