Thank you for the feedback!
Glad to help!

In the previous article, we deployed a basic Jitsi Meet server using Docker.
Now let’s look at how to secure your server, enable authentication, and optimize performance for stable video calls.

Authentication: Invite-Only Access

By default, Jitsi Meet allows anyone to create rooms. To restrict access — enable Secure Domain.

1. Open the .env file and find the Prosody (XMPP server) section.

   ENABLE_AUTH=1
   AUTH_TYPE=internal
   

Here, internal means that users will be stored locally.

Want to set up your own fully private video conferencing server?
Jitsi Meet is a great choice, and installing it with Docker is the fastest and most reliable way. This article provides a step-by-step guide to get your server up and running in just a few minutes.

Step 1: Preparation

Before installing, make sure you have:

• A Linux server (e.g., Ubuntu).
• A domain name pointing to your server’s IP (e.g., meet.your-domain.com).
• Installed Docker and Docker Compose.

👉 If Docker isn’t installed yet — use the instructions from the previous article.
