![]() These constraints can help to avoid overloading the core network. Oracle recommends you use session agent constraints for session-rate INVITE throttling and registration-rate for REGISTER throttling.įor SIP access deployments, you can configure rate constraints for individual method types along with a set of burst and sustain rates. ![]() However, you might want to throttle other types of SIP methods, and for those methods you should use the rate constraints configuration available both in the session constraints (which you then apply to a SIP interface or a realm) and the session agent configurations. ![]() You can’t fix what you don’t know is broken.You can configure throttling mechanisms for SIP INVITEs and REGISTERs using session agent constraints. The whole idea when you’re facing a hairy technical issue that might have a very long list of possible causes is to divide and conquer by making a list of what works as intended until you manage to isolate the source(s) of the issue. For instance, can you access your server from, your internal IP address, but not the self-owned domain name you might have assigned to Plex? Do you face similar issues with other apps or containers, or is this only happening with Plex? Similarly, if you’re running a reverse proxy and/or your own domain name maintained via DDNS, you’ll have to troubleshoot specifically those parts of your setup. Remember that while you can change the outward-facing port, Plex’s internal port should always be 32400. Long story short, you’ll either have to set up your Bridge network in the container’s settings (more involved) or use it in Host mode (easier). If you’re running Plex in Docker, that opens up additional potential connectivity issues. What If I Use Docker, a Reverse Proxy, or Other Fancy Tech That Makes Troubleshooting Harder? If you’re struggling, try (temporarily!) disabling your firewall(s) – and you might have one on your router and another one running on your server – and/or use uPnP or NAT-PMP to try and isolate the root cause of your connectivity problem: is it faulty IP address routing, or is it too aggressive port blocking? Is only a single client failing to connect directly, or all of them? Don’t forget to roll back these changes after you’re done to make sure your security is tight. Don’t worry if the checkmark is red when you first go to that page, what matters is whether it turns green after you tell Plex to check. Until and unless you get a green checkmark here, as per the screenshot introducing this entry, don’t expect to get a direct play or stream going on, even on your LAN. I like to manually set the public port, which I then forward in my router and open in my firewall. The next step is to go in PMS to Settings > Remote Access and check that remote access is enabled and working. How do I fix it in PMS and/or My Local Network? Don’t settle for such a horrible experience! 2. You absolutely want to ensure you have a direct connection to your server otherwise your 80′ 8K OLED TV will look like it’s playing VHS from the 80s. If you can’t trust your lying eyes, you’ll know it for a fact by going to the Dashboard of the Status section of your server’s settings. Failing to establish a direct connection to your PMS means your client is accessing it through Plex’s (throttled) Relay. ![]() Skipping or moving within the video during playback may also be very slow, whereas it should be pretty much immediate if you have a decent server (mine is a beefed up Synology DS920+) client (I like the Nvidia Shield), and network (I wired my entire house with Cat6A Ethernet cables). The telltale that you’re not connecting directly is forced transcoding at a horrible rate of 1Mbps (free Plex users) or 2Mbps (Plex Pass) during playback, even locally.
