jmx.rmi.port.registry – the RMI registry port

jmx.rmi.host – the host value by default 0.0.0.0 . if the host is 127.0.0.1 you can’t access in remote. Normally this is your machine ip address.

    I’ve installed an asterisk system in my company and later on I added the openfire server, which opened some doors to missing functions we were expecting from our service. The goal here was to have a single application which would like just as skype, centralizing file transfers, chat, conferences and phone calls. Sometimes, however, our employees are in mission at companies whose networks block much of the traffic and that’s where I think red5 would come in handy.
