Learn how to configure WebRTC.

Override Helm chart values

Download the WebRTC Helm charts from JFrog using your credentials. Override the configuration parameters in the values.yaml file to provide deployment-specific values for certain parameters. You can override values in the Helm charts to configure Private Edition. For more information about overriding Helm chart values, see the "suite-level" documentation about how to override Helm chart values: Overriding Helm chart values

deployment.namespace Name of Kubernetes namespace for WebRTC deployment mandatory webrtc string You can modify the default namespace used to deploy applications in the deployment.namespace option.

Configure Kubernetes

Document the layouts for the following so customers can create them if their Helm chart doesn't include a way to do this:
  • ConfigMaps
  • Secrets

Configure security

The security context settings define the privilege and access control settings for pods and containers.

By default, the user and group IDs are set in the values.yaml file as 500:500:500, meaning the genesys user.

securityContext:
  runAsNonRoot: true
  runAsUser: 500
  runAsGroup: 500
  fsGroup: 500

Arbitrary UIDs in AKS

If you want to use arbitrary UIDs in your Azure Kubernetes Services deployment, override the securityContext settings in the values.yaml file, so that you do not define any specific IDs.
podSecurityContext:
  runAsNonRoot: true
  runAsUser: null
  runAsGroup: 0
  fsGroup: null

securityContext:
  runAsNonRoot: true
  runAsUser: null
  runAsGroup: 0

Configure the service

Before proceeding with the deployment process, perform the following pre-steps:

  1. Review values-template.yaml in helm charts: It provides all the available options with comments and explanations.
  2. Configure all the options in your own values file: Configure/overwrite values for options that you need. Use the values-template.yaml file from the package that displays the list of available options with their description.
    Important
    Do not configure deployment.type and deployment.color options in values.yaml-file(s). These values should be used only during deployment process as command-line parameters to specify the deployment process.
    Sample values.yaml file:
    deployment:
      namespace:         webrtc
      ingress:
        domain: apps.vce-c0.eps.genesys.com

  3. PersistentVolume (PV) and PersistentVolumeClaim (PVC): If you plan to use PV for logs, create the PV and then specify it for PVC of Gateway and CoTurn.
    PV can also be created during the common-infrastructure deployment.  You should review the values-template.yaml file and then configure the PV specification for Gateway and CoTurn.
    Single PV/PVC pair will be used for both Green and Blue deployments of Gateway, and another single PV/PVC pair will be used for both Green and Blue deployments of CoTurn.
