Hi,
Background
* Reading about Jitsi and BigBlueButton, it seems the underlying
software they the use required "direct connection to the internet" and
exclusive use of port 443.
* While my infrastructure has a single external IP address, Router
that changes Internet facing IP address to internal IP address, DMZ
via NAT firewall which handles UPD, changing IP address to yet another
IP address. This is a common configuration for small business.
* I also have an Apache Web server which uses both port 80 and port
433. I believe while you can redirect port 80 traffic to another
server, because port 443 traffic is encrypted, it cannot be
redirected. The above two systems do not use Apache, but do want to
have use of port 443.
* Reading documentation for Openmeetings which pointed to Kurento
Media Server documetation: "If Kurento Media Server, its Application
Server, or any of the clients are located behind a NAT, you need to
use a STUN or a TURN server in order to achieve NAT traversal."
Questions
Is there any Video Conferencing systems that can work from inside a
NAT DMZ ? Note: I used to use OpenMeeting 2.0 quite effectively
inside a NAT DMZ, and because it did not require the use of port
443, it ran nicely in our environment.
Would OpenMeetings work in Debian 10 (Buster) environment, it did work
in Debian Squeeze, but a lot of underlying software has been updated
since that time?
Does OpenMeetings work in a single Docker container? (not that I
use Docker). I have seen some implementations of the above to systems
where part of the system is in side Docker but not the WebRTC
component.
Any useful thoughts on the above ?
Regards,
George.
