The resulting DNS configuration should look similar to above. Create an A record for your domain - here: Cloudflare DNS management Under DNS management create a new A record with the subdomain meet and the external IP address provided by Google Cloud Platform. I'm going to describe how it is done using Cloudflare. This step depends on your DNS nameserver provider. Now, packed with the newly created IP address it is time to create a DNS record for the domain name you would like to use for the Jitsi Meet server. Overview of reserved external IP addresses Create a DNS entry Of course, your external IP address will be different. Although the IP address is not attached to anything yet we are going to use it shortly. In Cloud Console navigate to VPC network > External IP addresses and reserve a new static address. We are going to use this IP address for the DNS record of your FQDN and to attach it to the VM instance running Jitsi Meet server. Define a permanent External IP addressįirst, you reserve a static IP address. Let's log into Google Cloud Console and begin the installation. I'm going to use the subdomain because the Jitsi Meet video conferencing system described here will be used for the Mauritius Software Craftsmanship Community (MSCC) and associated user groups in Mauritius. That domain will be used to access your Jitsi Meet server over the internet. Prerequisites: Domain Nameīefore you start following the steps in this article you should consider to have a fully qualified domain name (FQDN) at hand. Surely, the necessary steps shall be reproducible on other cloud computing platforms like Microsoft Azure or Amazon AWS. This first article describes the fundamental installation of Jitsi Meet on the Google Cloud Platform. The result is a series of tutorials on how to get started with Jitsi Meet, how to customise it for your own branding, and how to enable more features beyond the basic installation. Inspired by the announcement that offers free access to host video conferencing calls locally in Mauritius and the fact that past few meetings of the MSCC had been conducted virtually using Google Hangouts Meet, I reserved some time to do a little research. Due to a lack of necessity and organising most community meetings offline - both MSCC and GDG Mauritius - there was no motivation to look closer into any video conferencing platform. Irrespective of the current situation I already had a look at the Jitsi Meet platform some time back last year.
