Interface RTCError

The RTCError interface describes an error which has occurred while handling WebRTC operations. It's based upon the standard DOMException interface that describes general DOM errors.

The read-only sctpCauseCode property in an RTCError object provides the SCTP cause code explaining why the SCTP negotiation failed, if the RTCError represents an SCTP error.

MDN Reference

sdpLineNumber: number | null

The RTCError interface's read-only property sdpLineNumber specifies the line number within the SDP at which a syntax error occurred while parsing it.

MDN Reference
