Port forward for RTSP stream.

Wed Nov 02, 2022 8:20 pm

Hello,

I recently bought a hAP ac² router, which is my first mikrotik device, so I don't really have any experience with it.
I would like to stream some games to my friends, so I decided to use a RTSP plugin for OBS. It starts an RTSP server with the local PC's ip and port 554. So basically rtsp://192.168.88.230:554/live.
The stream works fin when viewing from the same network, yet connecting by my public ip doesn't work.
Using tutorials I opened the port 554 for both UDP and TCP and when using a website for pinging them they are both open. I also have a public IP that my provider gave me that I have replaced for X.X.X.X .

Would like to thank in advance.

You want to create a hole in your router and let the whole internet pour in??

Can you choose any port or is it fixed to that number (or is it just the usual default).

How are people connecting to your stream DYNDNS name:port# ??

Recommend if nothing else that you limite access on the destination nat rule to their Public IP address!!!
Either they have a static or they can get free dyndns host service and give you the name to put in a firewall adddress list.

++++++++++++++++

After limiting access, the other issue may be that your expecting to be able to push data, whereas they have to pull the data like off a server................ Not sure how your service works exactly.

I have a username and password restriction set in place with the server.
The port 554 is usually reserved for RTSP streams.
To connect to the stream you need VLC and then just the ip+port.

I have little experience with servers, but I'm pretty sure it's similar to game servers, like minecraft. I tried a minecraft server but that did not work as well.

Username and password is not enough for security that has no encryption............................ Is RTSP at least encrypted traffic............ Like Secure FTP or something.

Honestly, no idea, but I'd I assume it is, since it is used for security cameras. I don't think that the problem lies in RTSP, since as I have tried, minecraft servers don't work, and they only need open ports.
