Frequently asked questions

How do I connect my backend servers to BungeeCord?
Add each backend server's IP address and port to the config.yml file under the 'servers' section, then set those servers to offline mode and restart BungeeCord. Make sure your backend servers are behind a firewall and only accessible from the BungeeCord proxy.
Why do players see a disconnect when moving between servers?
IP forwarding is not enabled on all your servers. Turn on 'ip_forward: true' in BungeeCord's config and add 'bungeecord: true' to the spigot.yml file on every backend server, then restart everything.
Can I run BungeeCord on the same machine as my game servers?
Yes, but use different ports for each service so they don't conflict. BungeeCord typically uses port 25565 and your backend servers use ports like 25566, 25567, etc.
How much RAM does BungeeCord need?
BungeeCord uses very little memory because it only routes packets and doesn't load worlds or entities. Most networks run it comfortably on 256-512 MB allocated, though larger networks with thousands of players may need more.
