Reverse Proxy - how?

[FredWebber]

HI there...
I have a situation on a custom project.

I need to hide the original server's ip.
A would need redirect wowza acess (rtmp and port 1935) from a proxy gateway.

Anyone has experience with this? know how is the best method to make this?

Fred,

It should be same steps as setting up proxy for a web server, but for port 1935 and whatever other ports you need. (The closest experience I have is setting up pass-thru ports on a linksys router)

When wowza is behind a reverse proxy, does it pass the X-Forwarded-For or X-Client-IP extension headers to the modules? If so, does it override the client.getIp() return value, or is there some other method to use to get the client IP address?

Thanks

The X-Forwarded-For and X-Client-IP are not forwarded and getClientIp will most likely return the ip address of the proxy.

Thank you for the replies...
you did with linksys router.. but there is a chance by doing this with software.

Squid maybe?

thank you

any tips about how-to do that with wowza?

[rrlanham]

I have no experience to bring to this, but I think that Wowza and FMIS should be interchangeable in this configuration.

Hi.. I tried forward the ip from linux to the wowza server.

If i write ipservarA:1935 it is redirecting to ipserverB:1935

That's ok...

But flash player don't connect tho the ipserverB server.

It wasn't supposed to work?
