Restrict your configuration

The objective is to limit the creation of a conference room to a list of identified users. Guests will have to wait for one of these users to come and unlock the room.

Jicofo

/etc/jicofo/jicofo.conf

jicofo {
  authentication {
    enabled = true
    type = XMPP
    login-url = YOUR_DOMAIN
    enable-auto-login = true
  }
}

The restart.

systemctl restart jicofo

Jitsi meet

/etc/webapps/jitsi-meet/config.js

var config = {
  host: {
    // anonymous users need to use a dedicated muc without authentication
    anonymousdomain: 'guest.YOUR_DOMAIN',
  },
}

Prosody

/etc/prosody/conf.d/jitsi.cfg.lua

-- change authentification of your domain
VirtualHost "YOUR_DOMAIN"
    authentification = "internal_plain"
-- add guest virtual host to allow anonymous user to join your room
VirtualHost "guest.YOUR_DOMAIN"
        authentication = "jitsi-anonymous"
        c2s_require_encryption = false
        modules_enabled = {
          -- copy the content of the modules_enabled
          -- of the VirtualHost "YOUR_DOMAIN"
          -- remove only the module "muc_lobby_rooms" of the list
          -- example:
          "bosh";
          "pubsub";
          "ping"; -- Enable mod_ping
          "speakerstats";
          "external_services";
          "conference_duration";
