Forward deploy example

SRS can forward stream to other RTMP server.

Suppose the server ip is 192.168.1.170

Forward will copy streams to other RTMP server:

• Master: Encoder publish stream to master, which will forward to slave.
• Slave: Slave forward stream to slave.

We use master to listen at 1935, and slave listen at 19350.

Step 1, get SRS. For detail, read GIT

git clone https://github.com/ossrs/srs
cd srs/trunk

Or update the exists code:

git pull

Step 2, build SRS. For detail, read Build

./configure && make

Step 3, config master SRS. For detail, read Forward

Save bellow as config, or use conf/forward.master.conf:

# conf/forward.master.conf
listen              1935;
max_connections     1000;
pid                 ./objs/srs.master.pid;
srs_log_tank        file;
srs_log_file        ./objs/srs.master.log;
vhost __defaultVhost__ {
    forward {
        enabled on;
        destination 127.0.0.1:19350;
    }
}

Step 4, start master SRS. For detail, read Forward

./objs/srs -c conf/forward.master.conf

Step 5, config slave SRS. For detail, read Forward

Save bellow as config, or use conf/forward.slave.conf:

# conf/forward.slave.conf
listen              19350;
pid                 ./objs/srs.slave.pid;
srs_log_tank        file;
srs_log_file        ./objs/srs.slave.log;
vhost __defaultVhost__ {
}

Step 6, start slave SRS. For detail, read Forward

./objs/srs -c conf/forward.slave.conf

Note: Ensure the master and slave is ok, no error in log.

[winlin@dev6 srs]$ sudo netstat -anp|grep srs
tcp        0      0 0.0.0.0:1935                0.0.0.0:*                   LISTEN      7826/srs            
tcp        0      0 0.0.0.0:19350               0.0.0.0:*                   LISTEN      7834/srs

Step 7, start encoder. For detail, read Forward

Use FFMPEG to publish stream:

    for((;;)); do \
        ./objs/ffmpeg/bin/ffmpeg -re -i ./doc/source.200kbps.768x320.flv \
        -vcodec copy -acodec copy \
        -f flv -y rtmp://192.168.1.170/live/livestream; \
        sleep 1; \
    done

Or use FMLE to publish:

FMS URL: rtmp://192.168.1.170/live
Stream: livestream

The stream in SRS:

• Stream publish by encoder: rtmp://192.168.1.170:1935/live/livestream
• The stream forward by master SRS: rtmp://192.168.1.170:19350/live/livestream
• Play stream on master: rtmp://192.168.1.170/live/livestream
• Play strema on slave: rtmp://192.168.1.170:19350/live/livestream

Step 8, play the stream on master. For detail, read Forward

RTMP url is: rtmp://192.168.1.170:1935/live/livestream

User can use vlc to play the RTMP stream.

Or, use online SRS player: srs-player

Note: Please replace all ip 192.168.1.170 to your server ip.

Step 9, play the stream on slave. For detail, read Forward

RTMP url is: rtmp://192.168.1.170:19350/live/livestream

User can use vlc to play the RTMP stream.

Or, use online SRS player: srs-player-19350

Note: Please replace all ip 192.168.1.170 to your server ip.
