STUN and TURN servers need to be added uniquely to Spotlight Server. Spotlight SaaS can support one STUN Server and multiple TURN Server.

Configuring a STUN Server

By default, Spotlight SaaS ships pointed to a STUN Server hosted by Google. Telos Alliance recommends Google as a reliable default.
SpotlightSaaS only supports a single STUN Server. To change the STUN Server click the trash can icon next to the Google STUN configuration to remove it.
