Flash Communication Server Firewall Port Test
Flash Comm Server Port Test
This test determines
which ports the Macromedia Flash Player is able to connect through to the Flash
Communication Server located at Macromedia.com. All users should pass this port
test because HTTP Tunneling technology has been implemented on the server. If
you have success on any of the tests, that means you will be able to successfully
connect to and view Flash Communication Server content from the computer network
you are connected to.
If all the tests
fail, then you have failed the overall test. This means you will not be able
to successfully connect to and view Flash Communication Server content from
the computer network you are on.
Possible causes
of overall failure:
|
Macromedia Flash
Player is out of date. Upgrade to Flash Player 6,0,65,0
or higher. |
|
You
may be behind a "stateful inspection" firewall. These firewalls
will drop socket connections if they detect non-HTTP traffic such as the
Real-Time Messaging Protocol (RTMP) traffic used by the Flash Communication
Server. More information on firewalls can be found at Macromedia's Ports,
Firewalls, and Macromedia Flash Communication Server (TechNote 16499). |
|
You are using a proxy server to connect to the Internet. Most proxy
servers only negotiate HTTP traffic. For this reason, attempts to connect
to the Macromedia Flash Communication Server using RTMP through a proxy
server fail.
