Protocols used for communicating data across a packet-switched internet work using the Internet Protocol Suite, also referred to as TCP/IP.
Comment
RTMP is a protocol used by the Flash Player to deliver real time objects, video, and audio to clients using a binary TCP connection or polling HTTP tunnel.
This is the standard, unencrypted Real-Time Messaging Protocol. The default port is 1935; if a port is not specified, the client attempts to connect to ports in the following order: 1935, 443, 80 (RTMP), 80 (RTMPT).
RTMPT
This protocol is RTMP tunneled over HTTP; the RTMP data is encapsulated as valid HTTP. The default port is 80.
RTMPS
This protocol is RTMP over SSL. SSL is a protocol for enabling secure communications over TCP/IP. (Flash Media Server provides native support for both incoming and outgoing SSL connections.) The default port is 443.
RTMPE
This protocol is an encrypted version of RTMP. RTMPE is faster than SSL, does not require certificate management, and is enabled in the server's Adaptor.xml file. If you specify RTMPE without explicitly specifying a port, the Flash Player scans ports just like it does with RTMP, in the following order: 1935 (RTMPE), 443 (RTMPE), 80 (RTMPE), and 80 (RTMPTE).
RTMPTE
This protocol is RTMPE with an encrypted tunneling connection. The default port is 80.
