The section below discusses how you can protect a live stream.

MORE INFORMATION
You can set the Client/Server Access List in the registry to NO UI. This is documented in the product documentation or the release notes. You can track the authenticated clients and put their IP address in the registry to ALLOW access---all others would be denied.

Keep your own "database" of "authenticated" clients that includes the clients' IP addresses when they log in. Use the Monitor interface to see what clients are connected, and if the IP is not an authenticated IP, disconnect the client using the monitor interface.

Use the Microsoft Membership System, included in Microsoft Commercial Internet System version 1.0, to provide the authentication and validation of the resources. However, this may not be a complete solution.

If you know the client properties source link, you can use it to get the source feed. You will still need to implement some form of monitoring using the monitor interface to disconnect clients). For the total solution, you can implement this in Microsoft Visual Basic or Microsoft Visual C as a service, application, or in an ISAPI extension with Microsoft Active Server Pages (ASP) or other scripting added.
