Skatman Posted October 26, 2023 Share Posted October 26, 2023 So, I've been having issues with port forwarding from external addresses on my Plex Server with UNRAID. The ports for the docker are: I want it to run externally on port 54321, so the route should look like this: Internet -> 54321 -> ISP Router -> 54321 -> Docker (54321) -> Plex (32400). Historically, I had a different firewall in between the ISP Router and Docker which performed PAT, but I've removed that now and so want to ensure the traffic from the ISP router on TCP/UDP port 54321 gets to the Plex server on 32400. Can someone help with this? Quote Link to comment
Holt Posted October 27, 2023 Share Posted October 27, 2023 Try the Hotio's Plex docker, it's very easy to setup and I have not had any issues since I have installed it. In the template you can easly modify the external port by just changing its default value (32400) to whatever you want. Quote Link to comment

Thanks, issue is I would then have to set it all up again with Database etc wouldn't I? What option on the docker container did you change? Quote Link to comment
Skatman Posted October 27, 2023 Author Share Posted October 27, 2023 I just need to change the docker port from 32400 to 54321 I think. Is this sort of command even possible? Quote Link to comment
Skatman Posted October 27, 2023 Author Share Posted October 27, 2023 Either the port where this red arrow is, or the other side. Quote Link to comment
JonathanM Posted October 27, 2023 Share Posted October 27, 2023 Mapped ports don't do anything unless you are in bridge mode. Right now it's showing host, so port mapping is ignored, and all changes must be done in the app itself. 1 Quote Link to comment

Changing the setting in the server settings doesn't seem to work. It puts it into indirect play mode which results in streaming 480p or less. Quote Link to comment
JonathanM Posted October 30, 2023 Share Posted October 30, 2023 Why not use bridge mode? Quote Link to comment

JonathanM Posted October 30, 2023 Share Posted October 30, 2023 Change the mapped port to what you want on the host side. Quote Link to comment
