WMS_Client_Event Class
The WMS_Client_Event class indicates that the client has connected to or disconnected from the server or changed the state of the presentation. Because this class generates the highest rate of event notices, you should minimize the use of it. The following table identifies the properties of this class.

Client ID |

|
Client IP |
ClientIP |
String |
Contains the IP address of the client in dotted quad format. This is the IP address returned by the socket used by the server to send data. Therefore, the IP address may not be that of the player, but that of a firewall, NAT (Network Address Translator), or router if any of these are in the network path to the client. |
|
Client Port |
ClientPort |
String |
Contains the port number of the client. This is the port number returned by the socket used by the server to send data. Therefore, the port number may not be that of the outgoing distribution connection client, but rather that of a firewall, NAT (Network Address Translator), or router if any of these are in the network path to the client. |
|
File Name |
FileName |
String |
Contains the physical URL of the presentation being streamed to the client. The physical URL identifies the location of the content on the disk. This value is only set for Play and Stop subevents. |
|
Rate |
Rate |
real64 |
Contains the rate at which the client is playing the media content. A negative value indicates that the client is rewinding, and a value greater than one indicates that the client is fast-forwarding. |
