The IWMSAdminNetworkDataSourcePlugin object is exposed by the WMS Network Data Source plug-in. This object allows you to control how data is received over different network protocols. The IWMSAdminNetworkDataSourcePlugin object exposes the following properties and methods.

Property	Description
BufferingTime	Specifies and retrieves the amount of time that the plug-in buffers data before sending it along the data path.
NumProtocolsSupported	Retrieves the number of networking protocols supported by the plug-in.
NumUDPPortRanges	Retrieves the number of UDP/TCP port number ranges that can be used by the data source plug-in to receive data.
ProxyHostName	Retrieves the name of the proxy server.
ProxyPassword	Retrieves a Boolean value indicating whether a proxy password has been set for a particular protocol.
ProxyPort	Retrieves the port number to use for a particular protocol to receive content from an upstream proxy server.
ProxySettings	Retrieves an enumeration value indicating the proxy mode for a particular protocol.
ProxyUserName	Retrieves a user name that can be sent to a proxy server in response to an authentication challenge.
SupportedProtocolName	Retrieves the name of a specific protocol from a list of supported protocols.
TCPEnabled	Retrieves a Boolean value indicating whether the data source plug-in can use TCP when selecting a streaming protocol.
UDPEnabled	Specifies and retrieves a Boolean value indicating whether the data source plug-in can use UDP when selecting a streaming protocol.
UDPPortRangeLowerBound	Retrieves the lower bound of a specific UDP port range.
UDPPortRangeUpperBound	Retrieves the upper bound of a specific UDP port range.

Method	Description
AddUDPPortRange	Adds a range of UDP/TCP port numbers that can be used by the data source plug-in to receive data.
DeleteAllUDPPortRanges	Removes all of the UDP/TCP port number ranges that can be used by the data source plug-in to receive data.
SetProxyCredentials	Specifies the user name and password that can be used to connect to a proxy.
SetProxyHostName	Specifies the name of the proxy server.
SetProxyPort	Specifies the port number used for streaming content to the proxy server.
SetProxySettings	Specifies an enumeration value indicating the proxy mode for a particular protocol.

Example

The following example illustrates how to retrieve an IWMSAdminNetworkDataSourcePlugin object.

Imports Microsoft.WindowsMediaServices.Interop
Imports System.Runtime.InteropServices

Private Sub RetrieveObj()

    ' Declare variables.
    Dim Server As WMSServer
    Dim Plugin As IWMSPlugin
    Dim AdminNetDataSrc As IWMSAdminNetworkDataSourcePlugin

Try
    ' Create the WMSServer object.
    Server = New WMSServer()

    ' Retrieve the plug-in to be configured.
    Plugin = Server.DataSources.Item("WMS Network Data Source")

    ' Retrieve the custom interface of the plug-in.
    AdminNetDataSrc = Plugin.CustomInterface

Catch excCom As COMException
    ' TODO: Handle COM exceptions.
Catch exc As Exception
    ' TODO: Handle errors.
Finally
    ' TODO: Clean-up code goes here.
End Try

End Sub
