3. On the Create a custom target page, specify the following information.
    

   Note:  Look for the information you need to create a custom target in the ingestion settings provided by the destination's software or documentation.

• Target Name – A short, descriptive identifier for the target that differentiates it from other targets in Wowza Video. A Target Name is required, doesn't have to be unique, and can't exceed 255 characters.
• Provider – If the third-party CDN that you're using is listed, choose it from the pop-up menu. Otherwise, choose RTMP or RTMPS.
• Primary URL – The RTMP address, without the preceding protocol and without a trailing slash (/), that the target uses to ingest a stream. For example, [target-domain-or-ip-address]/[EntryPoint]. Hostnames can't contain underscores (_). For help determining the correct RTMP URL, see the destination's help or user guide.
• Backup URL – (Optional) The backup RTMP address, without the preceding protocol and without a trailing slash (/), that the target uses to ingest a stream. Not all providers or third-party CDNs provide a backup URL.
  
  When both the primary and backup URLs are used, Wowza Video sends the stream to both URLs, allowing the third-party CDN to improve reliability and prevent playback disruption. If you want to use both URLs, after assigning the target to an output rendition, make sure both the primary and backup versions have entries under the output rendition on the transcoder's Outputs & Targets tab. 
• Stream Name – The name of the stream as defined in your destination's ingestion settings. The protocol, host name, and path components of the stream name URL must be 255 characters or less. The query strings and parameter components of the stream name URL must be 1024 characters or less.
• Target Username – Your username for RTMP authentication by the target.
• Target Password – Your password for RTMP authentication by the target.
• HDS Playback URL – (Optional) The web address that your target uses to playback Adobe HDS streams. You can include it here for informational purposes.
• HLS Playback URL – (Optional) The web address that your target uses to playback HLS streams. You can include it here for informational purposes.
• RTMP Playback URL – (Optional) The web address that your target uses to play RTMP streams. You can include it here for informational purposes.

4. Click Save.
