Camfrog Web Basic User Guide

Summary

The Camfrog Web Basic software makes it simple to add web-based multi-user videoconferencing to any website. No user registration or database integration is required with Camfrog Web. Camfrog Web Server uses a single TCP port (6006 by default) and UDP range (5000-15000 by default) for all types of incoming connections. The license file provided with the server contains the maximum number of simultaneous connected users that works with the package that you purchased, the default server name (the name can be changed later via configuration file) and up to 3 domains to accept incoming connections. Each domain can be configured to accept the needed connection mode, for example: www.camfrogweb.com/chat Camfrog Web server supports one logon mode. In this mode the server will kick a previously connected user if a new user with same nickname logs on.

CamfrogWEB Active X control usage

To insert the Active X control into the WEB page you should use the example code:

Active X params (formatted as <PARAM NAME=”…” VALUE=”…”>):

cfsServerName (default value is "")
Camfrog Web Server address. This is the address where your Camfrog Web server is located.

cfsServerPort (default value is 6006 // 6006 – is a default CamfrogWEB Server port)
Change this value only in the case that you have changed the server port before. Otherwise please leave it as default.
