Learn the basic concepts for integrating a CDN Resource with your website or application.
After creating a CDN Resource in the Medianova Control Panel, update your application to deliver content through the CDN instead of your origin server. This page introduces the basic concepts required to configure content delivery and verify that requests are routed through the Medianova CDN.
A newly created CDN Resource progresses through several operational states before it begins serving traffic.
Pending
The resource is being provisioned and is not yet ready to serve traffic.
Active
The resource is fully deployed and available to serve requests through the CDN.
Passive
The resource is disabled or unavailable and cannot serve traffic.
Resource provisioning time depends on the selected product and configuration.
A CDN Resource is identified by two different hostnames.
Origin URL
https://www.example.com
The source server that stores your content.
CDN Hostname
yourresource.mncdn.com
The hostname that delivers content through the Medianova CDN.
Replace references to your origin hostname with the CDN hostname for assets that should be delivered through the CDN.

After updating these references, requests for the selected assets are served through the CDN instead of directly from the origin.
If your origin server is protected by a firewall or IP allowlist, permit requests from the Medianova CDN.
Use the published list of Medianova edge IP addresses when configuring your firewall.
