Increased MongoDB Traffic When Enabling TOTP

[muratugureminoglu]

Short description

When TOTP is enabled and viewed with a specific SubscriberID, the traffic on MongoDB increases. The MongoDB traffic statistics differ when watching streams with and without TOTP enabled, as shown in the attached screenshots.

Here are the steps to observe this increase in MongoDB traffic (note: internal connections also generate traffic, but this increase can be observed by comparing the two screenshots):

Without TOTP (Left Edge Instance, Right MongoDB instance)

With TOTP (Left Edge Instance, Right MongoDB instance)

As shown, the average traffic for one user is between 1Mbps - 2.4Mbps.

Environment

• Operating system and version: Ubuntu 22.04
• Java version: 17
• Ant Media Server version: 2.11.3
• Browser name and version: Chrome/Firefox

Steps to reproduce

1. Enable TOTP in the player.
2. Start the stream and play it as follows.

3. Monitor MongoDB traffic. (with ifstat tool, apt-get install ifstat -y)
4. Disable TOTP.
5. Start the stream again and play it.
6. Monitor MongoDB traffic. (with ifstat tool, apt-get install ifstat -y)

Expected behavior

Traffic should not increase so much just because It 's a text data.

Actual behavior

the average traffic for one user is between 1Mbps - 2.4Mbps on MongoDB instance.
