Educaship Jitsi

CNM Jitsi (hereinafter, the Soft) is a CNM stable app built with Jitsi. At this moment, it is unclear where and how this app will be finally installed since its HA and storage solutions haven't been designed yet.

Development of the Soft occurs under the Jitsi for CNM Cloud project.

Product specification

The Product specifications are:

CNM Jitsi has LDAP authentication and is hosted on a Proxmox cluster that ensures its high stability that distinguishes CNM Jitsi from Jitsi.

Hosting

CNM Jitsi is installed on the CNM EndUser Farm on the Proxmox cluster, CNM Jitsi is a unique installation that is the first experience of the CNM EndUser Farm property - high availability. CNM Jitsi can migrate from one machine to another one that were added to Proxmox cluster. These machines are hosted by Hetzer. Read more about high availability: CNM EndUser Farm, CNM ProxmoxVE.

Security

For security, we use Fail2ban because it operates by monitoring log files (e.g. /var/log/auth.log, /var/log/apache/access.log, etc.) for selected entries and running scripts based on them. Most commonly this is used to block selected IP addresses that may belong to hosts that are trying to breach the system's security. It can ban any host IP address that makes too many login attempts or performs any other unwanted action within a time frame defined by the administrator. Includes support for both IPv4 and IPv6.

Calls use the P2P mode, which is end-to-end encrypted via DTLS-SRTP between the two participants for encrypted communication (secure communication). Group calls also use DTLS-SRTP encryption, but rely on the Jitsi Videobridge (JVB) as video router, where packets are decrypted temporarily. All data is transmitted only through our server, and comprehensive TLS encryption provides protection against interception and unauthorized eavesdropping.

Malware protection

Previously, CNM Cloud developers struggled with the viruses, so an effective anti-virus strategy must be found -- what was the solution?

Standing operating procedures

Standing operating procedure

Monitoring process

Monitoring is done in Nagios Snapshots are made by hand, not on CNM Jitsi. Read more: CNM Nagios.

Backup

Usually the main backup is done on the farm, not on CNM Jitsi. So you can read more about backup on CNM EndUser Farm.

Customization

To customize certain elements of Jitsi, you should:

1. open the server where Jiti is installed in Terminal;
2. open the Midnight Commander by using the command root@jitsi:/home/jitsi# mc;
3. open catalog /usr (click /.. -> /.. -> /usr);
4. open catalog /share -> /jitsi-meet

Here you can select the element you want to change. Press F4 to edit.

Hands-on assignments
