Detections and SNMP

We have around 50 Wowza server. I would like to see:

  • SNMP support

  • Block user to change name of stream

  • Detection - frozen stream

  • Detection - interrupted stream

  • Detection - missing stream

Best regards,

Edin,

Here is SNMP comment that I think is current:

Detect frozen stream:

Detect missing stream:

Not sure about interrupted stream. What do you mean exactly?

so SNMP support you could add if you were using the Net-SNMP libraries. You would need to interface into Wowza via a custom Net-SNMP plugin but this is very do-able. It would slow things down, but very possible.

Other options directly into Wowza are more push like protocols such as IPDR etc.

[edit] I do have the beginnings of an IPDR client as I have written IPDR server code previously, but not yet fininshed[/edit]

Blocking a user from changing the name of the stream you can do now with a custom module

Detecting a frozen stream, so a source, you can do now with a custom module checking timecodes on stream packets

Detecting an interrupted stream, same as a frozen stream, but now checking if timecodes have been reset

Detecting a missing stream, again possible by checking if the stream is published.
