Re: [Ice] ICE PAC: When to start the timer waiting for possible peer reflexive candidates?

[Roman Shpount <[e-mail]>]

The timer should start when the connectivity checks start by the remote ICE
agent. The timer is needed to make sure local candidate addresses continue
to accept STUN binding requests for at least some minimal time, so
technically timer should start from the time remote ICE agent was informed
about candidate addresses and started connectivity checks. There is some
signaling delay involved here, so it needs to accounted by the timer value.
