Question

FMS returning private IP instead of public ip

Ok here is the situation we have a FMS server setup behind our Firewall with the NAT running as well. The port 1935 is open on the firewall for the FMS server and everything seems to be working internally but when I try to access the the stream from outside the network it does not work at all.

The interesting thing is when I netstat the box that I am making the call from it is getting the 10.xxx.xxx.xxx private address from the FMS server and runs through the ports it should ( 1935, 80, 443 ) but I can not for the life of me figure out why it would be getting the 10. address and not the public IP..

Any help on this issue would be great.

    Well I fixed the issue and I dont think it was the FMS server that had the issue.. I went back and looked at my AS and realized I had coded in the internal IP address for the connection. Thanks for the help though.

    Firstly there is probably something more definitive in the documentation regarding this, but I think you might be able to specify this in the fms.ini

    Look for
    ADAPTOR.HOSTPORT =

    and instead of the default ":1935, 80" specify the ipaddress you want to bind to "YourExternalIPHere:1935,80"
