INTRODUCTION
|
||
|
============
|
||
|
This document is an attempt to describe the basics of the DTLS element.
|
||
|
It hasn't been written by the author(s) and so, besides being incomplete,
|
||
|
*IT MIGHT ALSO BE INCORRECT*. So take it with a pinch of salt.
|
||
|
|
||
|
As always, if in doubt ask the #gstreamer IRC channel.
|
||
|
|
||
|
THE INTERNALS
|
||
|
=============
|
||
|
This plugin provides two main elements (dtlssrtpdec and dtlssrtpenc) and a few
|
||
|
minor elements necessary to implement them. The two elements dtlssrtpdec and
|
||
|
dtlssrtpenc are the only ones you are supposed to include in, respectively, the
|
||
|
RX and TX pipelines of your DTLS-enabled application. This means you're not
|
||
|
supposed to directly include those minor elements in your pipelines.
|
||
|
|
||
|
dtlssrtpenc
|
||
|
-----------
|
||
|
This element is to be included in the TX pipeline and will initiate the DTLS
|
||
|
handshake if configured to be the client. Its main configuration parameters are:
|
||
|
|
||
|
- connection-id: a string that must match the connection-id in dtlssrtpdec;
|
||
|
- is-client: a boolean that indicates whether this is going to be the client
|
||
|
or the server during the DTLS handshake.
|
||
|
|
||
|
Internally this element comprises the standard srtpenc element, the dtlsenc
|
||
|
element and a funnel to connect both these elements to one single output.
|
||
|
The srtpenc can be used to encrypt SRTP/SRTCP packets while the dtlsenc can be
|
||
|
used to encrypt generic data, e.g. for non-SRTP applications.
|
||
|
|
||
|
NB With the current implementation the TX pipeline containing the dtlssrtpenc
|
||
|
must be created *AFTER* the RX pipeline.
|
||
|
|
||
|
dtlssrtpdec
|
||
|
-----------
|
||
|
It is to be included in the RX pipeline. Its main configuration parameters are:
|
||
|
|
||
|
- connection-id: a string that must match the connection-id in dtlssrtpenc;
|
||
|
- pem: a string that can be used to provide your own certificate *AND* private
|
||
|
key in PEM format. The private key is required to carry out the
|
||
|
handshake so do not forget it or the DTLS negotiation will fail;
|
||
|
- peer_pem: a read only parameter that can be used to retrieve the
|
||
|
certificate sent from the other party in PEM format once the
|
||
|
handshake is completed.
|
||
|
|
||
|
Internally this element comprises a dtlssrtpdemux, a standard srtpdec element
|
||
|
and the dtlsdec element. The dtlssrtpdemux element switches SRT(C)P packets to
|
||
|
the srtpdec element and DTLS packets to the dtlsdec element and discards any
|
||
|
other unknown packet. So, similarly for the dtlssrtpenc case, DTLS-SRTP
|
||
|
applications would exercise the srtpdec element and any other non-SRTP
|
||
|
application would exercise the dtlsdec element.
|
||
|
|
||
|
NB With the current implementation the RX pipeline containing the dtlssrtpdec
|
||
|
must be created *BEFORE* the TX pipeline.
|
||
|
|
||
|
EXAMPLE PIPELINE
|
||
|
================
|
||
|
The following is an example usage of the DTLS plugin. It is a python script that
|
||
|
creates two endpoints that exchange encrypted audio using DTLS to exchange the
|
||
|
encryption keys.
|
||
|
|
||
|
NB In theory we would show an example gst-launch command. However that would not
|
||
|
be enough because you need two pairs of TX/RX pipelines for a proper
|
||
|
handshake and you can't use gst-launch two start 4 different pipelines.
|
||
|
This why there is a python script in here.
|
||
|
|
||
|
```
|
||
|
#!/usr/bin/env python3
|
||
|
|
||
|
# create two endpoints, each with tx and rx pipelines using the DTLS
|
||
|
# elements and let audio flowing for a while to give time for a packet capture
