<!-- Intro -->
<p>
<i>
Jitsi is a set of open-source projects that allows you to easily build and deploy secure video
conferencing solutions.
</i>
</p>
<p>
Is really easy to install, and also a really good alternative to Zoom or other video conferencing software.
You can create calls just by typing the URL, and loging-in is not necessary.
</p>
<p>
In this tutorial I'm assuming you're running Devian 9 or newer on your server, although Jitsi is also
supported out-of-the-box for Ubuntu, but that need some extra steps you can see
<a href="https://jitsi.github.io/handbook/docs/devops-guide/devops-guide-quickstart" target="blank">here</a
>.
</p>
<h2>How to get</h2>
<p>First of all, you'll need to make sure you have <code>apt-transport-https</code> installed, so run</p>
<pre><code>apt update<br>apt install apt-transport-https</code></pre>
<p>Jitsi has its own package repository, so let's add it.</p>
<pre><code>curl https://download.jitsi.org/jitsi-key.gpg.key | sh -c 'gpg --dearmor > /usr/share/keyrings/jitsi-keyring.gpg'<br><br>echo 'deb [signed-by=/usr/share/keyrings/jitsi-keyring.gpg] https://download.jitsi.org stable/' | tee /etc/apt/sources.list.d/jitsi-stable.list > /dev/null</code></pre>
<p>
Ok. So now we can install Jitsi, but before we do that, let's the firewall <code>ufw</code>, in case you
have it enabled, and the SSL certificate.
</p>
<h2></h2>
<h2>Setup and configure your firewall</h2>
<p>The following ports need to be open in your firewall, to allow traffic to the Jitsi Meet server:</p>
<ul>
<li>443 TCP - for general access to Jitsi Meet.</li>
<li>10000 UDP - for general network video/audio communications.</li>
<li>3478 UDP - for quering the stun server (coturn, optional, needs config.js change to enable it).</li>
<li>
5349 TCP - for fallback network video/audio communications over TCP (when UDP is blocked for example),
served by coturn.
</li>
</ul>
<pre><code>ufw allow 443/tcp<br>ufw allow 10000/udp<br>ufw allow 3478/udp<br>ufw allow 5349/tcp<br>ufw enable</code></pre>
<h2>SSL certificate</h2>
<p>
I'll be using <a href="./certbot.html" target="blank">certbot</a> and
<a href="./nginx.html" target="blank">Nginx</a> to generate the certificate.
</p>
<p>
Add the subdomain to your Nginx configuration file, wich for me is
<code>/etc/nginx/sites-available/mywebsite</code>. Open it and add the following at the end:
</p>
<pre><code>server {
server_name <strong>meet.example.com</strong> ;
location / {
try_files $uri $uri/ =404 ;
}
}</code></pre>
<p>
Substitute <code>meet.example.com</code> accordingly, where <code>meet</code> can be any subdomain you
want.
</p>
<p>Run <code>certbot</code> and reload nginx.</p>
<h2>Installation</h2>
<p>To begin the installation process, just run</p>
<pre><code>apt install jitsi-meet</code></pre>
<p>
It will ask you for your <code><strong>hostname</strong></code
>; there you'll need to input the subdomain you have just added to Nginx, like
<code>meet.example.com</code>.
</p>
<p>For the SSL certificate, choose <code>I want to use my own certificate</code>.</p>
<p>
When it ask you for the certification key and cert files, input
<code>/etc/letsencrypt/live/<strong>meet.example.com</strong>/privkey.pem</code> and
<code>/etc/letsencrypt/live/<strong>meet.example.com</strong>/cert.pem</code> respectively.
</p>
<h3>Confirm that your installation is working</h3>
<p>Just open a web browser and go to <code>meet.example.com</code>.</p>
<h3>Enjoy Jitsi!</h3>
