Hello everyone, I have another question regarding reverse-proxying again, specifically for the linuxserver.io jellyfin image.

On the dockerhub page for this image there are 4 ports listed which should be exposed:

  • 8096 for the HTTP Web UI
  • 8920 for the HTTPS Web UI
  • 7359/udp for autodiscovery of jellyfin from clients
  • 1900/udp for service discovery from DLNA and clients

Additionally there is also an environment variable JELLYFIN_PublishedServerUrl which is for "Setting the autodiscovery response domain or IP address". I currently have that set to my subdomain https://jellyfin.mydomain.com though I am not sure if that is correct.

I already have a reverse-proxy set up allowing me to access my servers webinterface under https://jellyfin.mydomain.com without exposing the https port on the container. What I am unsure about now however, is what to do with the two ports for UDP traffic.

By my understanding, a reverse-proxy will only forward traffic which comes to the ports 80 for http and 443 for https. Those are also the only ports my reverse-proxy container has exposed alongside the management interface. As such the 2 udp ports will not be reachable under my jellyfin domain.

How can I change this or is this even an issue?

Good to know. I thought there was some issue with those ports and the reverse-proxy because the DLNA function doesn't seem to be working but from some googling this seems to be more of a docker problem in general when you are not using host mode for networking.
