WMS RTSP Server Control Protocol
The WMS RTSP Server Control Protocol plug-in is used to control RTSP streaming from your server. You can configure the following options on the General tab for this plug-in.
| Item | Description |
|---|---|
IP addresses |
Settings in this area define how the control protocol can use IP addresses on your server. |
Allow all IP addresses to use this protocol |
Select this option to allow all of the IP addresses on your server to use RTSP when streaming content. |
Allow selected IP addresses to use this protocol |
Select this option to allow only those IP addresses in the IP address list to use RTSP when streaming content. |
Port selection |
Settings in the area define the port used by the control protocol. |

Select this option to use the default RTSP streaming port, which is 554. |
Use other port |
Select this option to specify a different port to use with RTSP streaming, and then type the port you want to use in the space provided. |
Note
Multiple IP addresses are available if you have multiple network adapters or have created multiple virtual IP addresses for your server.
Note
If a server control protocol plug-in is enabled on a Windows Media server with multiple network adapters, you can prevent IP addresses from using a certain protocol by selecting those addresses in Allow selected IP addresses to use this protocol. If you select Allow selected IP addresses to use this protocol but don't select any of the IP addresses listed, all IP addresses will be allowed to use the protocol. If you do not want to allow any of the IP addresses to use the protocol, you should disable the server control protocol plug-in.
