<h3 id="RTCBundlePolicy_enum">RTCBundlePolicy enum</h3>

<p>The <code>RTCBundlePolicy</code> enum defines string constants which are used to request a specific policy for gathering ICE candidates if the remote peer isn't compatible with the <a href="https://webrtcstandards.info/sdp-bundle/">SDP BUNDLE standard</a> for bundling multiple media streams on a single transport link.</p>

<div class="note">
<p><strong>Note:</strong> In technical terms, a BUNDLE lets all media flow between two peers flow across a single <strong>5-tuple</strong>; that is, from the same IP and port on one peer to the same IP and port on the other peer, using the same transport protocol.</p>
