Some people (including myself) have had some very difficult to debug networking issues with mediasoup on alpine-linux. I think it has something to do with UDP support in libuv on alpine. I’m not sure if the bug is with libuv or alpine, but switching to the standard ubuntu-based docker image for node fixes it. It’s possible this doesn’t happen anymore, but wanted to give you a heads up just in case. There’s more information in these threads: > [@Frequent transport ICE state and tuple changes in production](https://mediasoup.discourse.group/t/frequent-transport-ice-state-and-tuple-changes-in-production/1591/4): > > I’d say that your server receives UDP packets but cannot send UDP replies. Firewall stuff probably. > [@Using Chromium in a Docker container to connect to mediasoup in another container fails (with mediasoup \>=3.5.8)](https://mediasoup.discourse.group/t/using-chromium-in-a-docker-container-to-connect-to-mediasoup-in-another-container-fails-with-mediasoup-3-5-8/1113/17): > > I can second that we are working on alpine distros and see the same problem. Interestingly, the target now got smaller to analyze. [UPDATE] I found this [link](https://gitlab.alpinelinux.org/alpine/aports/-/issues/11960) it looks like alpine support for libuv 1.39(+?) is only a month old --- _[View the full topic](https://mediasoup.discourse.group/t/alpine-linux-failed-at-the-mediasoup-3-8-0-postinstall-script/3153)._
