Creating a venue requires an Enterprise account with the Events add-on.
If you are having issues starting a stream to your venue via an encoder (RTMP), you or your IT team may need to check to see if firewall ports and domains are blocked. This is common especially if you are on a corporate network (office, convention center, hotel, school. etc.)
Firewall configuration
All encoders use various internet ports to communicate with Vimeo, all of which need to be made open to both incoming and outgoing communication.
These ports are:
- TCP 1935
- TCP 80
- TCP 443
- TCP 3433
- TCP 4700-5000
- TCP 5668
- TCP 5669
- TCP 6080
- TCP 6443
- TCP 8667
- TCP 9667
- TCP 30011-30013
- UDP 3478
- UDP 4700-5000
- UDP 53
- UDP 1024-2048
- TCP/UDP 3478
- TCP/UDP 19305-19307
- TCP/UDP 19307 50000 - 64000
Ports 1935, 80, and 443 represent RTMP, HTTP, and HTTPS respectively. Many corporate and academic networks' security policies will block UDP 53, as it provides DNS.
UDP 2088 should be open when broadcasting from Mevo (iOS and Android). If any of these are blocked, you may want to get in touch with your network administrator or IT prior to proceeding further with setup.
Allowed domains
If your corporate network restricts access to certain websites or domains, ensure the following domains are on your allow list in order to communicate with Vimeo and its CDN.
- *.vimeo.com
- *.vimeocdn.com
- .google.com
- .pndsn.com
- *.googleapis.com
- *.firebaseio.com
- .agora.io
- .edge.agora.io
- .sd-rtn.com
- .edge.sd-rtn.com
