Connection method Protocol Port Description
HTTP TCP 80 By default, Flash Player and AIR
clients that cannot connect to
Adobe Media Server over port
1935 attempt to tunnel over port
80 (RTMPT).
If Apache is installed and enabled,
HTTP requests made over port 80
are proxied to Apache over port
8134.
All TCP 1935 By default, Flash Player and AIR
clients make RTMP connections
to Adobe Media Server over port
1935/TCP.
To communicate with Adobe
Media Server over the RTMP
protocol, clients attempt to
connect to ports in the following
order: 1935, 80 (RTMP), 80
(RTMPT).
All UDP 1935 The RTMFP protocol
communicates over UDP. Clients
connect to the server over 1935
and the server redirects the client
to a port between 19350 and
19360.
To change the default RTMFP port
range, edit the
Adaptor/RTMFP/Core/HostPortLi
st/HostPort element in the
Adaptor.xml Configuration files.
SSH TCP 22 Allows you to connect to an
instance over SSH to copy files,
manage logs and configuration
files, and so on.
