I installed Wowza Streaming Engine on my AWS instance, and I have Lamp running on it and serving a web site. I only have 1 ip assigned to the EC2 instance at this time.
When I look in the WSE admin, the IP it shows is not the ip to my site. If I do http://[my-actual-ip]:1935 I see the confirmation, but if I do the IP it shows (172.31.32.213) I do not get the confirmation.

How do I change the IP to my current one?

Wil I have an issue using only one IP, or do I need to assign a IP just for WSE?
Thx!
Hi Brian,
IP/port combinations have to be unique, so one IP/Port combo for Wowza, and a different IP/Port combo for LAMP. By default Wowza will bind to all IP’s that are available. To override this you can configure your VHost.xml
file to use a specified IP. In your VHost.xml file change:
<IpAddress>*</IpAddress>
To:
<IpAddress>[actual-ip]</IpAddress>
You will need to change this for all the host ports setup in your VHost.xml file.

Thanks for the quick reply. Can I use the same ip as I am using for the website?
ie
[same-ip-as-site]
(I think this is how it is now on my older Wowza Media Server that is not AWS).
@BrianPss - Yes since your website runs on port 80 (http://) or 443 (https://) and WSE runs on port 8088.
Hello
How can I access and control the remote server meaning not from my Internet and not from the same Internet which in the same server I want remote control
I do not have access to the real server, but when I set up my IP which is the same router I can access the server
For information I have
wowza engine
can control and log on to Wowza stream engine only from this IP 192.168.1.4
But since I do not have a real IP address I can not access it, so I’ve installed the Wowza stream engine on the MacBook
Because I want to control it remotely
thank you
