Hi,

please use the search function on the forum. this has been asked and explained quite some times already.

  1. connection counts
  • Open your VHost.xml

search for connectioncounts

change authtentication method from admin-digest to admin-basic

open the file admin.password en insert a username and password.

restart your WowzaStreamingEngine and go to your browser http://ipaddress:8086/connectioncounts

login and password you have set in the admin.password file

here you will be able to see all your connections and streams

  1. limit number of connections

you can do that in the application.xml of each stream or you can do that in the StreamingEngineManager.

this is basic information which is explained in the user guide.
