1. Also consider supporting TLS/DTLS. To do this, add the following settings
to `turnserver.conf`:
# TLS certificates, including intermediate certs.
# For Let's Encrypt certificates, use `fullchain.pem` here.
cert=/path/to/fullchain.pem
# TLS private key file
pkey=/path/to/privkey.pem

systemctl restart coturn
