Hi Team,

We are planning to implement a monitoring script so if any camera stops working then we should get immediate alert.

I tried using api’s as mentioned in the doc [https://www.wowza.com/docs/statistics-query-examples](https://www.wowza.com/docs/statistics-query-examples)

But our architecture is as below

wowza-on-premise------\> wowza-repeater-----\> wowza-edge

So if any camera is not working on-premise then we should get immediate alert from wowza-repeater and wowza-edge. Also if wowza-on-premise stops working then alert should be generated from wowza-repeater and wowza-edge.

Please advise if there is any way to perform this. I tried the api’s; but it didnt work for me.

I brought down the wowza-onpremise but still incoming stream was showing as up and connected from wowza-repeater end.
