## (Optional) configure internal Jitsi authentication and guests mode
By default the Jitsi Meet instance does not require any kind of login and is open to use for anyone without registration.
If you would like to control who is allowed to open meetings on your new Jitsi instance, then please follow this step to enable Jitsi's `internal` authentication and guests mode. With this optional configuration, all meeting rooms have to be opened by at least one registered user, after that guests are free to join. If a registered host is not present yet, guests are put on hold into a waiting room.
If you prefer an open Jitsi instance, please skip to [Apply changes](#apply-changes).
Add these two lines to your `inventory/host_vars/matrix.DOMAIN/vars.yml` configuration:
```yaml
matrix_jitsi_enable_auth: true
matrix_jitsi_enable_guests: true
```
## Apply changes
Then re-run the playbook: `ansible-playbook -i inventory/hosts setup.yml --tags=setup-all,start`
## Required if configuring Jitsi with its internal authentication: register new users
Until this gets integrated into the playbook, we need to register new users / meeting hosts for Jitsi manually.
Please SSH into your matrix host machine and execute the following command targeting the `matrix-jitsi-prosody` container:
```bash
docker exec matrix-jitsi-prosody prosodyctl --config /config/prosody.cfg.lua register <USERNAME> matrix-jitsi-web <PASSWORD>
```
Run this command for each user you would like to create, replacing `<USERNAME>` and `<PASSWORD>` accordingly. After you've finished, please exit the host.
