Hello,

How do we get the current Wowza IP(Server IP?) from the module?

and an other thing how do i unload a application completly on OnAppStart?

im using this code but it stops and starts again instantly

```auto
	  		String appName = this.appInstance.getApplication().getName();
			IVHost vhost = this.appInstance.getVHost();
			
			vhost.shutdownApplication(appName);

```

Thanks

I don’t think there is a way in Wowza to get the server’s IP address. Wowza binds to all IP addresses unless you specify otherwise in a VHost.xml /HostPort /IpAddress, which is set to “\*” by default.

If you touch the application in anyway it will load.

Somewhat related,

for Akamai’s Analytics - i’d like each wowza to be able to output something like this for HTTP request:

192.168.0.1

8.8.8.8

This way we could get wowza servers to respond to Akamais analytics in same manner as Akamai’s edges. I tried finding proper solution from forums for this but no avail. Any idea which would be the best way to do this?
