RTC_E_SECURITY_LEVEL_ALREADY_SET

Operational meaning: RTC_E_SECURITY_LEVEL_ALREADY_SET

This result is useful only when preserved with its producing phase; in applying client policy, authorized domains, transport requirements, and negotiated media security levels, it denotes the media security level has already been fixed for this media type and cannot be changed in the current session state.

The machine-readable identity of this result is 0x80EE007D in the RTC interface facility 0xEE; the result identity matters because RTC uses separate facilities for API conditions, SIP final responses, and PINT service statuses.

The first useful check is to record media type, original level setter, negotiation state, and requested replacement. The result must be separated from nearby conditions because immutability after setting differs from incompatibility with a peer.

Signals worth preserving

  • Code-specific proof: record media type, original level setter, negotiation state, and requested replacement.
  • Correlation key: profile/server domain.
  • Protocol or object snapshot: requested media security level.
  • Last completed transition: peer capability result.
  • Expected output: transport selected for signaling.

Protocol and object state

RTC areaRTC policy and media-security
Condition to provethe media security level has already been fixed for this media type and cannot be changed in the current session state
Objects to correlateenabled profile, policy source, authorized domain, media type, local and remote security level
Safe corrective directionchoose the level before negotiation or establish a new session under a different explicit policy

Policy refusal is distinct from transport failure: the requested operation may be technically possible but prohibited for the current profile or platform. Media security must be compatible for each participating endpoint and should not be silently downgraded after negotiation begins.

Verification workflow

  1. Record it and 0x80EE007D at the first RTC method or event that returns it.
  2. Prove the condition by ensuring the trace can record media type, original level setter, negotiation state, and requested replacement.
  3. Apply one controlled change: choose the level before negotiation or establish a new session under a different explicit policy; then verify the result return value and resulting RTC state.

Do not confuse it with

RTC_E_SECURITY_LEVEL_NOT_DEFINEDthe application has not defined the media security level required for the operation
RTC_E_UDP_NOT_SUPPORTEDthe requested feature or profile combination is incompatible with at least one server using UDP transport
RTC_E_POLICY_NOT_ALLOWeffective RTC policy explicitly prohibits the requested action

Recovery and control flow

Example: A late plugin tries to raise audio security after the offer has already been built.

Actions that do not address this condition

  • Do not bypass policy by editing generated profile XML in memory.
  • Do not downgrade security without an explicit product policy and user-visible result.
