Streaming Media Acceleration
Conversant CDN accelerates video and audio streaming by supporting protocols such as HLS and MPEG-DASH. Edge nodes optimise delivery by merging concurrent requests for the same content into a single origin fetch, reducing origin bandwidth and load.
Steps:
- Navigate to Domains, create a domain, configure the domain name and origin URL, check Enable Streaming, and click Save.
- On the Domains page, select the newly created domain, go to SSL Certificate, click Attach, and select Auto Certificate.
- Configure the CNAME record provided under Standard Mode at your DNS provider.
- Click Attach and wait for the auto certificate to be effective.
- To restrict playback for specific IP addresses or ranges, go to Access Control, click Add Blacklist. Configure IP/Network Restriction (e.g.,
172.31.32.0/24
), and click Save.
