# \&stunonly

General Option! ([`&push`](/advanced-settings/setup-parameters/push.md), [`&room`](/advanced-settings/setup-parameters/room.md), [`&view`](/advanced-settings/mixer-scene-parameters/view.md), [`&scene`](/advanced-settings/mixer-scene-parameters/scene.md))

## Options

Example: `&stunonly`

| Value      | Description                     |
| ---------- | ------------------------------- |
| (no value) | Enable STUN-only (disable TURN) |

## Details

* Filters ICE to exclude TURN/relay candidates, preventing use of TURN servers.
* Useful for testing direct P2P connectivity; can reduce latency when direct paths work.
* Risk: connections behind strict NAT/firewalls may fail without TURN fallback.
* Combine with [`&icefilter`](/advanced-settings/turn-and-stun-parameters/and-icefilter.md) for custom filtering, or with [`&lanonly`](/advanced-settings/turn-and-stun-parameters/and-lanonly.md) for local-only tests.
