Hi all!

It's not clear for me, please help.

Is it true that all connections will be handled by FMS (like picture in FMG description)?

Or there is only connection initiations and subsequent data go through FMG directly?

And in all cases what UDP ports (I prefer UDP for lower latency) I have to open between flash player and FMS/FMG

Thanks in advance!

Correct answer

The architecture is exactly same to the case of rtmp connection between FMS & flash. Non-p2p RTMFP connection is made between flash player & FMS, only difference on the client side is that rtmp URL, rtmfp:// is used instead of rtmp://

FMG doesn't act as  a peer for direct connection with Flash Player. All connections go via FMS.

In addition: RTMFP assumes p2p connections between clients, how p2p handled by FMG?
