QUESTION:
What ports need to be open and on which protocol?
ANSWER:
The following default ports are required to be open in order to allow for Live Streaming and Second Screen (note: you may also want port 22 open for SSH access to your server):
- 5080 : default HTTP access of Red5 Pro
- 443 : modified HTTPS port
- 1935 : default Red5 Pro RTMP port
- 8554 : default Red5 Pro RTSP port
- 6262 : websockets for HLS
- 8088: second screen client registry
- 40,000 -65535 : TURN/STUN/ICE port range (UDP)
For servers older than 5.4.0 (as of 5.4.0, websockets connects on the same ports as HTTP/HTTPS):
- 8081 : websockets for WebRTC
- 8083 : secure Websockets for WebRTC
