LCCS + RTMFP ports and IP addresses/host names

Avatar

Level 4

Hey guys,

Where could I get the ports + IP addresses that we must have open in order to use RTMFP + LCCS services ?

I've found:

http://forums.adobe.com/thread/583118 which seems to be related due to talking about RTMFP ports

http://www.iana.org/assignments/port-numbers - port 1935 that you've registered with IANA

http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/164/tn_16499.html - FMS using1935

http://help.adobe.com/en_US/flashmediaserver/configadmin/WSdb9a8c2ed4c02d261d76cb3412a40a490be-8000.... - some more info on ports

http://allthingsadobeconnect.blogspot.com/2011/02/what-is-list-of-ip-addresses-for.html One of your partmers listed the IP addresses/host names, which is another piece of info I'm searching

http://learn.adobe.com/wiki/display/lccs/LiveCycle+Collaboration+Service - nothing here ? :/

Is there an official doc for this type of info or can some validate the following:

1) Must have ports 80 (RTMP), 443 (RTMPS) and 1935 (RTMFP - tcp+udp); however, once the application connects on port 1935 it will be redirected to any port between 19350-65535.

2) The fms*.na*.acrobat.com ip address are always going to be in the:

209.34.68.0/24 subnet

66.235.155.0/24 subnet

Thanks

Sorry, I thought I replied to this the other day. Not sure of what happen of my post.

Anyway, this is the list of ports used by FMS in LCCS:

- tcp 443 for rtmps (rtmp over SSL)

- udp 1935 for rtmfp

- udp 19350-19400 (I need to check the upper bound) : FMS listen on udp 1935 for the incoming connection and then redirects the request to one of those (not sure of the fine details for this, but we had to configure our firewall to have these inbound ports open).

So in order to succesfully connect to LCCS via RTMFP you need to allow UDP traffic and outbound connections to 1935 and 19350-up.

You also want tcp 443 open (that you should already have) to access the web services and downgrade to rtmps for recording and/or if a client requires it.

Let us know if these information are sufficient or if you need more details. Since we are relying on FMS the best place to look for documentation would be the reference documentation for FMS 4.x. Here is a link that explains the server-side configuration for RTFMP support. The client should have the same set of ports open (outbound instead of inbound):

http://help.adobe.com/en_US/flashmediaserver/configadmin/WS5b3ccc516d4fbf351e63e3d119f2925e64-7fd2.h...

This other link explain how to configure a TURN proxy if you want to limit the access to outbound UDP to only the Flash clients:

Woot! Thanks!

That seems like sufficient amount of info. If our client has other questions I'll ping you again

Thanks again,
