Ridgerun's GstRrWebRTC provides data channel support. The data channel can be used for data transfer between endpoints by using the SCTP protocol.
Ridgerun's GstRrWebRTC provides data channel support. Data channel can be used for data transfer between endpoints by using the SCTP protocol, which allows flow and congestion control. The reliability and delivery order of data are configurable on the SCTP ptotocol.
* Reliability means that an endpoint is able to know if the data was received or not by the other endpoint.
* Order means that data is received in the same order it was sent.
 
Data channel in GstRrWebRTC works with a combination of elements that provide support for data transfer between multiple endpoints on a single session.

==GstWebRTCBin Data Properties==
 
The GstWebRTCBin element exposes some properties that can be used to configure the endpoints functionality on data transfer:
 
 
* '''data-port:'''
Specify the desired SCTP port to use for data transfer. Its value must be defined in the range: '''[0 - 65535]'''. If not used, the port '''5000''' is assigned by default.
 
* '''data-channel-id:'''
Specify an identifier for each data channel stream. Default: Its value must be defined in the range: '''[0 - 65535]'''. If not used, a '''random''' port in that range is assigned by default.
 
* '''enable-data:'''
Used to enable the negotiation of the WebRTC data channel for an endpoint. It is required to use the '''new_data''' and '''on_new_data''' callbacks without data-pads. If not used, the data channel support wont be enabled ('''false''' by default).
 
* '''data-channel-status:'''
This property represents the connection status, which indicate if data channel is currently connected. If not used, such information wont be displayed ('''false''' by default).
