How Can I Monitor Flash Server RTMP?

Flash RTMP (Real Time Messaging Protocol) run on port 1935. I tried using http and a modified version of an http monitor I'm using for non standard ports, but it did not work.     Any idea...

If you have the pool member defined on port anything but port 0, you shouldn't need to specify a port in the monitor. The monitor will use the pool member's port.

 

 

I'd assumed that RTMP was running over HTTP (Click here), so I suggested an HTTP monitor. If you don't configure a send string in the TCP or HTTP monitor, the monitoring daemon will only check to see if it gets a response to a TCP handshake request. If you capture a tcpdump of a successful request, you could configure the monitor send string with the request. Add a string found in a successful response as the receive string, and you can check that the application is responding correctly before marking the pool member up.
