In WebRTC, DataChannel API is used to send non-media data (sending arbitrary application data). To send the data between the peers, DataChannel uses SCTP (Stream Control Transmission Protocol) which runs over established DTLS tunnel over UDP. Multiple
independent SCTP streams (incoming and outgoing) with the same application dependent identifier are carried in a single SCTP association. Each SCTP stream has a unique identifier.
Note: SCTP
is a transport protocol (like TCP and UDP) and it can work directly over IP protocol. In WebRTC it works over DTLS tunnel over UDP. SCTP combines the best of TCP and UDP.
So to open a data channel between two peers, mainly we need these libraries :SCTP (for congestion, flow control,…), ICE (for NATing), DTLS (for security), and the datachannel itself.
本文介绍了WebRTC中DataChannel的使用方式及原理。DataChannel通过SCTP协议在DTLS隧道之上通过UDP发送非媒体数据,实现了浏览器间任意应用数据的传输。文章还提到了实现DataChannel所需的关键库和技术,包括SCTP、ICE、DTLS等。
