Question

FMES P2P ports

I've been using Stratus to develop a p2p webconference app and now that FMS 4/FMES is released with support of RTMFP, I was wondering if FMES dynamically assigned the ports like Stratus?  Like the following:

1) The initial connection to Stratus for a fingerprint ID connected with a port in the range of 10000-10100

2) The p2p connections were established based on the fingerprint ID anywhere between 1024-65535

Is that still how the p2p connections with FMES work, or is there now a way to possibly define the ports?

Another question, assuming the above is still true, if the machines that will be directly connected with p2p are on a local network behind the same firewall, the only UDP ports that would need to be openned/configured would be 10000-10100 to talk to the server. Once the fingerprints are established, the machines should be wide open within their own network to connect to each other, correct?

Thanks in advance!

    the default server UDP ports for FMS 4 RTMFP are 1935 and 19350+.

    ports used by clients/peers can't be configured.

    So after clients get their far/near ID's from the FMS server, when they attempt to p2p connect to each other is the port they use still randomly chosen between 1024...65535?  or is there a different range for that now?

    clients will still have randomly chosen ports between 1024..65535.  that isn't under the control of the server.
