FMS Using port 81 fallback for Apache configuration

Experts,

I need to upgrade FMS 4.5 for HDS/HLS streaming.  I am using Server 2008 and I need to use IIS7 port 80 for legacy web sites. 

I would like to configure in fms.ini  using ports 1935 and 81 and Apache requests to  port 8134. 

Can I use this configuration?   Do I need to open ports 81 and ports 8134 in the network?

What is recommended in this case?

Thanks in advance.

Hi,


That should be just fine, there is nothing as such recommended, the ports should be configurable depending on the server's configuration. Please go ahead and make the changes, and let us know if there are any issues.

Thank you !

you can go for the IP Binding and by that both IIS 7 and FMS can run on the same port 80 !

Hi Nikhil,

Thanks so much for your answer.

IT decided to open port 8134 only.  So, I cannot use port 81 for FMS requests. I am going to use port 1935 for FMS (RTMP), 80 for IIS7 (HTTP), and 8134 for FMS HDS/HLS (HTTP).

Can I remove the port 81 from the ADAPTOR.HOSTPORT and disable the HTTPPROXI.HOST, but keep Apache listening on port 8134?

If any of your RTMP users are behind restictive firewalls, it would be a good idea for RTMP/T/TE to be available over port 80. If for some reason a user can't connect via RTMP over port 1935, the default behavior of the flashplayer is to try RTMP/T over port 80

Can your IT admins add another IP to your server's NIC? That way, IIS can bind to port 80 on the existing IP, and you can bind FMS to port 80 on the new IP
