Jitsi installation is **not enabled by default**, because it's not a core component of Matrix services.
The setup done by the playbook is very similar to [docker-jitsi-meet](https://github.com/jitsi/docker-jitsi-meet).

## (Optional) Configure Jitsi authentication and guests mode
By default the Jitsi Meet instance does not require any kind of login and is open to use for anyone without registration.
If you're fine with such an open Jitsi instance, please skip to [Apply changes](#apply-changes).
If you would like to control who is allowed to open meetings on your new Jitsi instance, then please follow this step to enable Jitsi's `internal` authentication and guests mode. With this optional configuration, all meeting rooms have to be opened by at least one registered user, after that guests are free to join. If a registered host is not present yet, guests are put on hold into a waiting room.

### (Optional) LDAP authentication
The default authentication mode of Jitsi is `internal`, however LDAP is also supported. An example LDAP configuration could be:
```yaml
matrix_jitsi_enable_auth: true
matrix_jitsi_auth_type: ldap
matrix_jitsi_ldap_url: ldap://ldap.DOMAIN # or ldaps:// if using tls
matrix_jitsi_ldap_base: "OU=People,DC=DOMAIN"
matrix_jitsi_ldap_filter: "(&(uid=%u)(employeeType=active))"
matrix_jitsi_ldap_use_tls: false
matrix_jitsi_ldap_start_tls: true
```
For more information refer to the [docker-jitsi-meet](https://github.com/jitsi/docker-jitsi-meet#authentication-using-ldap) and the [saslauthd `LDAP_SASLAUTHD`](https://github.com/winlibs/cyrus-sasl/blob/master/saslauthd/LDAP_SASLAUTHD) documentation.
## (Optional) Making your Jitsi server work on a LAN
By default the Jitsi Meet instance does not work with a client in LAN (Local Area Network), even if others are connected from WAN. There are no video and audio. In the case of WAN to WAN everything is ok.
The reason is the Jitsi VideoBridge git to LAN client the IP address of the docker image instead of the host. The [documentation](https://github.com/jitsi/docker-jitsi-meet#running-behind-nat-or-on-a-lan-environment) of Jitsi in docker suggest to add DOCKER_HOST_ADDRESS in enviornment variable to make it work.

Until this gets integrated into the playbook, we need to register new users / meeting hosts for Jitsi manually.
