Configure an Adaptive Media Delivery (AMD) property for failovers

If used with a single AMD configuration, and property hostname, add a match condition on the Request Path. For example: /hls/live/<streamid>-b/* for HLS or /dash/live/streamid-b/ for DASH and select the appropriate origin hostname as Origin Server.

Path match.

Origin server behavior.

Configure the following Origin Server settings:

  • Origin Type: Select the “Your Origin” option from the drop-down menu.
  • Origin Server Hostname: Put in the “Primary origin hostname” of the MSL5 Origin that the CDN wants to connect to.
  • Forward Host Header: Select the "Origin Hostname" option from the drop-down menu.
