[Help] Luci-app-dockerman default bridge mode Jellyfin

[Leslie]

Hi All,

Can anyone please let me know why I cannot access Jellyfin through 192.168.1.1:8096? I tried searching for the same situation but cannot find any and documentation for Docker CE is too vague. I think an example would be helpful for newbie like me using Docker CE.

Things I've done

Putty:

dockerman pull jellyfin/jellyfin:latest

Luci-app-dockerman
Using Resolve CLI

docker run --restart=always -d --name jellyfin
-p 8096:8096
-v /opt/jellyfin/config:/config
-v /opt/jellyfin/cache:/cache
-v /opt/jellyfin/videos:/videos
jellyfin/jellyfin

Container status is running

Other info

It seems you did not setup Firewall for port 8096, I do not know how to do it.

[Leslie]

Do port forward will have an effect if I am only accessing it through LAN only? one thing I did in Firewall is to add the docker interface that was created into the LAN zone

[anomeome]

--net=host needed?

[Leslie]

It works as host but how would I do it if using docker as bridge mode?

[Miles28]

For Emby Server I had to add this variable to docker compose file, because by default it was asigned to host network:

network_mode: bridge

so try to run

docker run --network bridge

You will also need to open the Jellyfin port in the machine firewall you are trying to access from.

There are unofficial OpenWRT build from mj22226 that come with all kinds of goodies preinstalled. He has docker pre-configured. I've run them before there was an official OpenWRT for my device.

You could download the x86_64 build, installed it in a VM and take a look at his configuration.

Thanks for your solution. I managed to set is as bridge. Container's IP is set to 172.17.0.2 and can be pinged from openwrt using putty ssh.

I also create port forward rule from created interface docker to LAN on port 8096.

I tried typing in 172.12.0.2:8096 in other device connected to openwrt (my laptop) but cant get in to jellyfin webui.

I'm aware that I cannot really access the webui from that subnet since the container acts like a virtual machine but when I did docker inspect, there's no other ip assigned to the container. I'm assuming that openwrt DHCP server will assign an IP to docker container automatically but I dont know where to find the IP address

[Leslie]

Thanks, I will try this one and see the config. Hopefully the VM's containers are using bridged network as well.

• If you are running Jellyfin on a docker container installed over OpenWrt, you should be able to access from 192.168.1.1:8096.
• Do you have any firewall application on the laptop?
• The next tip is not related to Jellyfin, but in my case I had also to mark "bring up empty device" for the bridge docker device.
