Do I require special firewall settings for Spreed web meetings?

Using Spreed Web Meetings does not require special firewall settings. However, with some firewall settings the communication between your desktop and the server goes through a “HTTP proxy” server. Depending on your available Internet bandwidth and the speed of the Proxy server, audio and video can be delayed. If the latency (the delay) is higher than 200ms you should speak with your system administrator to enable TCP port 1935 (outgoing only) to let Spreed communicating faster. In rare cases “stateful firewalls” may interrupt the Spreed connection after some amount of data has been transferred. Contact your system administrator in this case. Spreed utilizes the encrypted Real-Time Streaming Protocol (RTMP/E), for audio and video communication. Spreed usually communicates through TCP port 1935 (outgoing-only). In case of firewall restrictions, Spreed communicates through HTTP tunneling on TCP port 80 (the default HTTP-Port) and TCP port 443 (default HTTP/S port).
