Description

We are currently utilizing Element (and RiotX for ability to set sync frequency) as a chat and video platform for both desktop and Android devices. Currently phones are default to peer to peer calls and are ignoring our Turn server. This is fantastic except where our network engineer and security is concerned.

Ideal solution:
An option (even Develop only) to disable peer to peer and go via Turn.
An option within Developer mode to specify a range of ports for peer to peer calls would also resolve the issue.

Alternative
Opening traffic both ways of any:any on our mobile fleet is possible though not something palatable.
