&peerrecoversteps

Sets how many automated recovery steps are attempted per peer before giving up

General Option! (&push, &room, &view, &scene, &director)

Aliases

• &p2precoversteps

Options

Example: &peerrecoversteps=4

Value	Description
Integer	Max number of recovery steps

Details

• Default is 3.

• Allowed range is clamped to 1 through 6.

• Higher values allow more retries before the peer is closed/rebuilt.

• Lower values fail fast and rely on fresh reconnection sooner.

Current recovery ladder (simplified):

1. Attempt ICE restart.

2. Rotate ICE/TURN preference and attempt relay escalation, then ICE restart.

3. Additional attempts continue up to the configured step limit; with &autorecover and WHIP/WHEP configured, auto-fallback signaling may be attempted for eligible peers.

Usage examples

• Balanced default-like behavior: ?room=show123&peerrecoversteps=3

• Very persistent recovery: ?room=show123&autorecover=1&peerrecoversteps=6
