Help with turnserver community plugin rules

[NoelleAttachedStorage]

Hey all,

I've been half halfheartedly been trying to get coturn working for quite some time now. I have nextcloud and Matrix instances running on my unRAID machine, but neither of them have working voice/video calls. With the new Discord policy change, I would really like to get Coturn working. I was first trying to get it working from a container on my unRAID machine, but that ultimately didn't work out. I have since built and deployed my OPNsense router and found out there's a Coturn plugin.

So far, I've made a DNS-only A record on Cloudflare pointing to my public IP. I then installed the community plugin for Coturn and just filled in the realm and other basic settings for a non-TLS turnserver. I plan to do proper TLS once I can do a trickleICE test and actually gather candidates. As of right now I'm really not sure what firewall rules/settings I need to create.

Have any of you deployed this plugin successfully that would be willing to share screenshots or advise on what rules I need to create? These are the basic settings I have so far (I plan to significantly reduce the port range, only have roughly 20 friends in my Nextcloud).

Thanks,

Do you have 1:1 Port Translation configured for them ?

I am guessing you need to since a lot of Voice/Video Call software does not function correctly without it.

Discord is SPYWARE as far as I am concerned so the less you have to deal with it the better! ;)

I've only just installed OPNsense maybe a month ago and honestly have very little familiarity with it lol. I did enable static port for the coturn container on the unraid machine but was still having problems, so I just decided it would be easier to run on the OPNsense router directly. My Nextcloud instance can't work with the built in turn server they use because I use a cloudflare proxy that breaks it. I think it would be simplest to enable the coturn service on my router, and point Matrix, Nextcloud, and any future webRTC applications at the coturn(.)my-domain.org I created.

I found this blog post, but it seems a bit outdated and with extra steps https://blog.wolfspyre.com/2024/may/opnsense-gets-its-turn/ I was hoping someone had more recently used the plugin and could share their settings/rules.

yeah it really sucks how much information is locked behind using it these days.

Bump with a picture of my spare parts opnsense build. Surely someone has installed and configured this plugin lol

That's what's up lol,I dig the retro build archives. This was my partner's old 3800x, RAM, and motherboard combo. Bought a r5 430 for $10 just to have video out for inital setup 😹 The 3800X is extremely overkill I think, but it's what I had on hand haha.

Thnx! ^_^

Forgot to mention some specs :
AMD 64 X2 4400+
Dual Channel 2 x 1GB RAM
DFI nForce 4 SLI LANparty 25th Anniversary Venus Limited Edition
ATi 1900XTX with whatever the biggest VRAM option was...
Cooler Master Stacker STC-T01 of which I still got 2 in stock : 1 in use and 1 as spare that was meant for a DIY NAS build, but never came that far...

That really gives it the finishing touch! LOL!

At least you can handle PPPoE connections properly now with IDS/IPS turned on too! :P
