Jitsi-meet and STUN issues

[Daniel Wotton]

I may be attempting to achieve something that doesn't typically work so I'd like to hear any suggestions.

I can create a jitsi-meet conference on my local network without any issues and see media streams. But when I join a client externally the media stream attempts to establish but fails.

Using wireshark I can identify that server attempts to do send STUN messages directly to the external devices local IP (not sure where it retrieves this information from). This communication is a binding request component using protocol STUN, which obviously never makes it to the client device.

Anyone have any suggestions as to why this traffic is occurring and if it's possible to rectify? Or is it just not possible to host jitsi-meet behind a NAT?

Thanks for any advice in advance.

I am not sure I understand your scenario but if you are trying to run Jitsi Videobridge behind a NAT then you have to make sure that a) Jitsi Videobridge knows where it is and b) you have forwarded the necessary ports.

You might want to send more details about your problem to the project mailing lists https://jitsi.org/lists

These are ICE check requests. 

I think It may be possible to run jitsi-meet behind  NAT by  proper configuration of STUN and TURN server but It is not a good idea to deploy in this way because of quality and performance.

You can run behind the NAT that keeps one to one mapping and doesn't change port. Most of the NAT in the user end doesn't work in this way.
