## (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.
Here is how to do it in the playbook.
Add these two lines to your `inventory/host_vars/matrix.DOMAIN/vars.yml` configuration:
```yaml
matrix_jitsi_jvb_container_extra_arguments:
- '--env "DOCKER_HOST_ADDRESS=<Local IP adress of the host>"'
```
