Hi,

How can I disable RTMP out for specific application or server wide?

Thanks,

In your Application.xml set

true

So AllowDomains to say

nothisdomain

Should prevent Flash clients from connecting. A much more effective way would be to write a custom module which rejects connections completely.

[edit] actually this will probably prevent the encoder connecting as well so try this

[https://www.wowza.com/docs/how-to-combat-hotlinking-your-adobe-flash-swf-file](https://www.wowza.com/docs/how-to-combat-hotlinking-your-adobe-flash-swf-file)

which will allow your encoder, if set correctly, and then reject player connections

[/edit]

Also, you can change the /conf/[app-name]/Application.xml /Client /StreamReadAccess from “\*” to empty, remove the asterisk.

Will this affect RTP, HLS and Smooth Streaming Out?
