GENERAL INFORMATION

turnadmin is a TURN administration tool. This tool can be used to manage the user accounts (add/remove users, generate TURN keys for the users). For security reasons, we do not recommend storing passwords openly. The better option is to use pre-processed "keys" which are then used for authentication. These keys are generated by turnadmin. Turnadmin is a link to turnserver binary, but turnadmin performs different functions.

Options note: turnadmin has long and short option names, for most options. Some options have only long form, some options have only short form. Their syntax somewhat different, if an argument is required:

The short form must be used as this (for example):

  $ turnadmin -u <username> ...

The long form equivalent must use the "=" character:

  $ turnadmin --user=<username> ...

If this is a flag option (no argument required) then their usage are the same, for example:

 $ turnadmin -k ...

is equivalent to:

 $ turnadmin --key ...

NAME

turnadmin - a TURN relay administration tool.

SYNOPSIS

$ turnadmin [command] [options]

$ turnadmin [ -h | --help]

DESCRIPTION

Commands:

-k, --key Generate key for a long-term credentials mechanism user.

-a, --add Add or update a long-term user.

-A, --add-st Add or update a short-term credentials mechanism user.

-d, --delete Delete a long-term user.

-D, --delete-st Delete a short-term user.

-l, --list List long-term users in the database.

-L, --list-st List short-term users in the database.

-s, --set-secret=<value> Add shared secret for TURN RESP API

-S, --show-secret Show stored shared secrets for TURN REST API

-X, --delete-secret=<value> Delete a shared secret.

--delete-all_secrets Delete all shared secrets for REST API.

NOTE: if you are using the flat file for the user database, then you will have to use a text editor to set or show the shared secrets.

Options with required values:

-b, --userdb File-based user database file name (default - turnuserdb.conf). See the --userdb option in the turnserver section.

-e, --psql-userdb PostgreSQL user database connection string. See the --psql-userdb option in the turnserver section.

-M, --mysql-userdb MySQL user database connection string. See the --mysql-userdb option in the turnserver section.

-N, --redis-userdb Redis user database connection string. See the --redis-userdb option in the turnserver section.

-u, --user User name.

-r, --realm Realm, for long-term credentials mechanism only.

-p, --password Password.

-H, --sha256 Use SHA256 as the keys hash function (a non-standard feature). By default, MD5 is used for the key storage encryption (as required by the current STUN/TURNstandards).

-h, --help Help.

Generate a key:

$ turnadmin -k -u <username> -r <realm> -p <password>

Add/update a user (and realm) in the userdb file or in the database:

$ turnadmin -a [-b <userdb-file> | -e <db-connection-string> | -M <db-connection-string> | -N <db-connection-string> ] -u <username> -r <realm> -p <password>

Delete a user from the userdb file or from the database:

$ turnadmin -d [-b <userdb-file> | -e <db-connection-string> | -M <db-connection-string> | -N <db-connection-string> ] -u <username>

List all long-term users in MySQL database:

$ turnadmin -l --mysql-userdb="<db-connection-string>"

List all short-term users in Redis database:

$ turnadmin -L --redis-userdb="<db-connection-string>"

Set secret in MySQL database:

$ turnadmin -s <secret> --mysql-userdb="<db-connection-string>"

Show secret stored in PostgreSQL database:

$ turnadmin -S --psql-userdb="<db-connection-string>"
