EventsProxy Property

Returns or sets a String value specifying the name of the proxy server monitoring the NetShow unicast server.

Syntax

NSUnicastMgr.EventsProxy

Remarks

The Unicast Manager Service and the NetShow Monitor Service compete with each other for system resources, particularly CPU time. The Unicast Manager Service gets priority over the NetShow Monitor Service. Under extremely heavy loads, monitoring may be discontinued. To relieve this conflict and ensure that the control receives all of its events, the NetShow Monitor Service can be set up to run from a remote computer, or "proxy monitor."

By default, the event proxy is the same computer as the server.

Example

MsgBox NSUnicastMgr.EventsProxy       ' show current proxy
NSUnicastMgr.EventsProxy = "NSPROXY"  ' connect to proxy server NSPROXY
