Status: RESOLVED FIXED

Description

[Byron Campen [:bwc]]

Of particular interest is updating what "default route" means, from whatever interface is used to reach the internet, to whatever interface was used to reach the origin.

Attachment: Bug 1506219 - Update default route according to latest IETF draft

draft-ietf-rtcweb-ip-handling specifies that the default route is the route
used to reach the origin rather than the one used to reach the internet, so
update the IP routing to reflect this. This addresses issues in which the
wrong IP address is used on machines with multiple network interfaces.

Depends on D36203

Attachment: Bug 1506219 - Use a known remote for applications loaded from file:// URIs

Fall back to using Google's DNS server to determine the associated local
addresses for web applications that are not loaded over the network. This
includes the loopback address, which is frequently used in the unit tests.

Provide a separate function for setting the target for the default local
address lookup.

Depends on D36831

I just tried this with the datachannel-only example on webrtc-landing. Depending on how I configured routing to mozilla.github.io, I got different IP addresses on my host candidates, so it seems that this is working. I have not attempted testing a datachannel page loaded from a file, or from localhost.
