Deploy Openvidu Server 2.13.0 on premises in LAN network without internet connection

smartleopard · April 26, 2020, 8:22am

Hi all,
I deployed Openvidu 2.13.0 on my PC based on https://docs.openvidu.io/en/2.13.0/deployment/deploying-on-premises/
Then i connected classroom-demo app to this server. Everything works fine as its on localhost and my PC has internet connection. What i must do to deploy Openvidu Server on my company LAN (without any internet connection) computer? i must load docker images, but what happend to coturn? does it need internet connectio to work?

OpenVidu installation script is implemented assuming you can download software from Internet. If you can not use Internet, download docker images and install them in target computer.

Also, you have to set manually the machine IP in COTURN_IP in openvidu-server in docker-compose instead of relaying on /usr/local/bin/discover_my_public_ip.sh script.

Something like:

    openvidu-server:
        image: openvidu/openvidu-server:2.13.0
        restart: on-failure
        network_mode: host
        entrypoint: ['/bin/bash', '-c', 'export COTURN_IP=XX.XX.XX.XX; /usr/local/bin/entrypoint.sh']

Also, if you plan to use recording, you should donwload also recording container.

Hi,
Thanks Micael for replying, I’m new to docker, would you please explain more about this (how i must do this):

micael.gallego · April 29, 2020, 8:04am

Replace openvidu-server service in docker-compose.yml with the following content:

openvidu-server:
        image: openvidu/openvidu-server:2.13.0
        restart: on-failure
        network_mode: host
        entrypoint: ['/bin/bash', '-c', 'export COTURN_IP=XX.XX.XX.XX; /usr/local/bin/entrypoint.sh']

And the value XX.XX.XX.XX must be the public IP of the installation machine.

Hey folks, i have problem regarding similar configuration. I have openvidu-server-kms 2.13 ruining on linux machine that is in my network on a docker. Do i need to install coturn so i can process the video because at the moment im receiving the following :

Please open new thread as your issue seems very different.

Is there any way to use hostname instead of coturn_ip?

I’d like to use Global Accelerator in AWS Service for turn server.

I have to use FQDN for this.( https://aws.amazon.com/ko/global-accelerator/ )

micael.gallego · May 18, 2020, 2:21pm

No, it is not possible as it is a limitation of the underlying ICE library libnice.

richard · May 19, 2020, 1:44am

We already used Global Accelator for turn service with openvidu-pro 2.12.0

V2.12.0 Configure

/opt/openvidu/application.properties

coturn.ip=openvidu-ga.domain.com <- domain

token value

wss://openvidu-ga.domain.com:4443?sessionId=ses_GngQpFvCAl&token=tok_FS3nstWMlG61gyhQ&role=PUBLISHER&version=2.12.0&coturnIp=openvidu-ga.domain.com&turnUsername=VHNDFO&turnCredential=uvh9dn&webrtcStatsInterval=30"

turnIp returned domain name.

V2.14.0 Configure

/opt/openvidu/docker-compose.yml

entrypoint: [’/bin/bash’, ‘-c’, ‘export COTURN_IP=openvidu-v2-pre.domain.com; /usr/local/bin/entrypoint.sh’]

token value

wss://openvidu-v2-pre.domain.com?sessionId=ses_SDMElga6xw&token=tok_A6E65pQO3qSeV2D8&role=PUBLISHER&version=2.14.0&coturnIp=13.124.XX.XX&turnUsername=IPYRBC&turnCredential=pnn16n&webrtcStatsInterval=30

coturnIp returned Ip value.

You are right.

Kurento Media Server doesn’t allow a TURN server specified with FQDN.

Any browser does allow a TURN server server specified with FQDN.

We got a ip value for coturn IP even though we set a domain.

entrypoint: [’/bin/bash’, ‘-c’, ‘export COTURN_IP=openvidu-v2-pre.domain.com; /usr/local/bin/entrypoint.sh’] <- set a domain value

io.openvidu.server.coturn.CoturnCredentialsService - COTURN IP: 13.124.XX.XX <- IP value

Domain is translated IP value.
What is the best way to get a domain value?

richard · May 19, 2020, 6:08am

We found out something changed in your git repository.

github.com

OpenVidu/openvidu/blob/master/openvidu-server/src/main/java/io/openvidu/server/config/OpenviduConfig.java#L525


		if (certificateType != null && !certificateType.isEmpty()) {
			List<String> validValues = Arrays.asList("selfsigned", "owncert", "letsencrypt");
			if (!validValues.contains(certificateType)) {
				addError(property, "Invalid value '" + certificateType + "'. Valid values are " + validValues);
			}
		}
	}

	private void checkCoturnIp() {
		String property = "COTURN_IP";
		coturnIp = asOptionalIPv4OrIPv6(property);

		if (coturnIp == null || this.coturnIp.isEmpty()) {
			try {
				this.coturnIp = new URL(this.getFinalUrl()).getHost();
			} catch (MalformedURLException e) {
				log.error("Can't get Domain name from OpenVidu public Url: " + e.getMessage());
			}
		}
	}

It seems to convert the domain to ip.

micael.gallego · May 19, 2020, 8:17am

Yes… He have added it because now TURN is configured also in KMS.

If you want to configure TURN only in browser, then is better to configure it directly in openvidu-browser:

https://docs.openvidu.io/en/2.14.0/api/openvidu-browser/classes/openvidu.html#setadvancedconfiguration

I hope it helps in your use case.
