That's good news. If you want to test a more complex scenario, you could
try to "isolate" your vagrant machines from each other. I don't know
what are the possibilities of vagrant for this, but maybe that setting
up a separate private network with NAT for each vagrant machine, or
adding some iptables rules to just drop the UDP traffic are some of
these possibilities.

By making the direct path unreachable, it should force libnice to
workaround and to select pairs with a less direct path between the
machines with the help of relay and server reflexive candidates.

Best wishes,
