How to setup Jitsi Meet on a custom Kubernetes

We have a single node kubernetes environment hosted on an on prem server and we are attempting to host jitsi on it as a single pod. Jitsi web, jicofo, jvb and the prosody will be in on one pod rather than having separate pods for each (reference here)

So far what we have managed to set it up by adding our ingress hostname to as the PUBLIC_URL to all 4 containers within the pod. This service works fine if two users are on the same network.

If a user using another network joins the call, there is no video or audio and will receive such an error in the jvb container

EDIT

I have added the yaml file for the jitsi here

Solution

  • Managed to fix it. Posting this for anyone who comes across the same issue.

    first off the UDP port 10000 does not work in kubernetes as you can only expose ports between 30000 to 32768. Having said that you need to pick a port within that range and use it for the JVB_PORT configuration in the JVB container.

    secondly use that port in the service lay to expose it to the front end

    - name: "udp"
  protocol: UDP
  port: 31000
  targetPort: 31000
  nodePort: 31000

    Thirdly, regarding the firewall and, if you are behind a company firewall, make sure you have enabled ingress and egress for your JVB_PORT
