Whats the url for viewing concurrent connections/active connections through an xml output? [example.com:1935/concurrentConnections](http://example.com:1935/concurrentConnections) [example.com:8086](http://example.com:8086):/concurrentConnections? i had this before but then i cleared my cache and can’t remember what it is. Thanks. Brad ---

That is outdated, we will update the Wowza EC2 User Guide. Older Wowza EC2 instances showed connection info (server=n) info at that http://[wowza-address]:1935. Current Wowza EC2 instances show connection info (server=n) info at that http://[wowza-address]:8086/connectioninfo You need to set username and password for access to this in /conf/admin.password.

Yes, change the AuthenticationMethod in the HTTPProvider from “admin-digest” to “none”. Restart Wowza after this change. Or use “admin-basic” and put username and password in url: ```auto http://richard:mypwd@[wowza-address]:8086/connectioncounts ``` Richard ---

there is not defaults, in the /conf directory you should see a file called admin.password you need to add your username / password to it by adding it into the file. If you open the file with an editor there are instructions in it. Shamrock ---

I know nothing about EC2 deployments so I can not answer that, except to say you do need to install the load balancer module for the information to be available. Shamrock ---

For these HTTP services on the EC2 instances, is there a default username and password set? ---

Also, I found this in the manual that load balance information can be obtained from http port 1935; but all I get is the Version/Build info. I have one stream connected for testing. Also for the other http services it just seems strange that there is default password info for Cacti on EC2 but not for these other http services. I will need to figure out how to set defaults using the startup package scripts if anyone can help with that; it would be great. From the manual (pg 19): What this means is if you open a web browser and enter the url: http://[instance-public-domain]:1935 where [instance-public-domain] is the public domain name for the instance. Wowza Server will return load information for the instance. Example output is: server=864 Where 864 is the current number of Flash client connections to the instance. ---

richard, Can you configure it to NOT have a user/pass and be open? > That is outdated, we will update the Wowza EC2 User Guide. > > Older Wowza EC2 instances showed connection info (server=n) info at that http://[wowza-address]:1935. > > Current Wowza EC2 instances show connection info (server=n) info at that http://[wowza-address]:8086/connectioninfo > > You need to set username and password for access to this in /conf/admin.password. > > Richard
