[Live-devel] proxy server

[Ross Finlayson]

> I am new to the live555 library and have some questions. I want to make a proxy server which receives incoming RTSP message from network interface A and route them to network interface B after modifying the RTSP URL.

I’m not 100% sure that I understand your question, but I assume that you want to do this:

	‘back-end’ RTSP server  <—network A—  proxy server <—network B— ‘front-end’ client(s)

You may be able to use the existing proxy server (without modification) for this, provided that:
1/ Your ‘back-end’ RTSP server is naturally accessible via network interface A.  I.e., if you were to try to contact the ‘back-end’ RTSP server from the proxy server using the 'back-end' server’s IP address and port, this would use network interface A, and
2/ Your proxy server is naturally accessible via network interface B.  I.e., if ‘front-end’ client(s) were to try to contact the proxy server using the proxy server’s IP address and port, then this would use network interface B.

You should be able to get this to work just by configuring your (i.e., the proxy server host’s) routing tables appropriately.
