Openfire Chat Server Features

Let's have a look at some of Openfire's features. First, we'll check out the server information page.

Continuing, take a look at the diverse range of plugins you can enable to enhance your server's functionality.

You can configure which gateways will be allowed for communications on your server. While Google Talk is marked experimental, I had no problems using this gateway. XMPP is also quite stable, at least for my purposes. Note: Some visitors have pointed out the fact that the last sentence seems a little strange, considering the fact that Jabber does XMPP; I thought it odd that the plugin was marked "experimental" too. That's why I'm specifically noting that it works just fine.

There are a wealth of other features to experiment with; this tour has really just touched the surface. Enjoy your new Openfire server!
