Origin Host Header

The Origin Host Header feature in the Medianova Cloud Panel for dynamic content allows you to specify a custom domain to be included in the Host header for all requests made to the origin server. This ensures that the origin server can route requests appropriately, especially in scenarios where domain-specific routing or validation is required.

Key Features

• Custom Host Domain: Specify a custom domain to be sent in the Host header for all requests to the origin server. This helps ensure that dynamic content is routed correctly based on the expected domain.

• Flexible Configuration: You can configure any valid domain format, without needing to include the "http://" or "https://" prefix. This makes it easy to define the appropriate host domain for your dynamic content requests.

• Enhanced Compatibility: This feature is especially useful for multi-tenant or shared hosting environments where the origin server relies on specific domains to properly route and validate requests for dynamic content.

How to Configure the Origin Host Heade

1. Log in to the Cloud Panel: Access the Medianova Cloud Panel and navigate to the CDN Resources section from the left-hand menu.

2. Select the Relevant Resource: Choose the resource where you want to configure the Origin Host Header.

3. Click on the Headers tab.

4. Enable the Origin Host Header: Locate the Origin Host Header setting and toggle it to On.

5. Enter the Host Domain:

   • In the input field, specify the domain to be used in the Host header (e.g., subdomain.example.com).

   • Ensure the domain is entered without http:// or https://.

6. Submit Your Configuration: Click the Submit button to save and apply your changes.

By configuring the Origin Host Header, you can ensure compatibility with origin servers that require specific domain headers, improving routing accuracy and server behavior.
