Thanks for the details. To stop showing this information please add the following Property that will replace “WowzaStreamingEngine/[version]” so you can add a custom name.

```auto
**Path** : Root/Server
**Name** : httpHeaderServer
**Type** : String
**Value** : [Your Custom Server Name]

```

After adding the Property a restart of the Wowza Streaming Engine software is required for the changes to take effect.

Please see the following article on how to add Properties using Wowza Streaming Engine Manager.

[https://www.wowza.com/docs/how-to-get-started-as-a-wowza-streaming-engine-manager-administrator](https://www.wowza.com/docs/how-to-get-started-as-a-wowza-streaming-engine-manager-administrator)

If editing the Server.xml file with a text editor, add to the **Server/Properties** container at the bottom of the file.

The Property will look like this:

```auto
<Property>
 <Name>httpHeaderServer</Name> 
 <Value>[CustomServerName]</Value>
 <Type>String</Type> 
</Property>

```

Again a restart of the Wowza Streaming Engine software is required for the changes to take effect.
