edge_​origin_​authorization

  • Property Manager name: Edge Server Identification
  • Behavior version: The v2023-01-05 rule format supports the edge_​origin_​authorization behavior v1.1.
  • Rule format status: GA, stable
  • Access: Read/Write
  • Allowed in includes: Yes

Allows the origin server to use a cookie to ensure requests from Akamai servers are genuine.

This behavior requires that you specify the cookie's domain name, so it is best to deploy within a match of the hostname. It does not work properly when the origin server accepts more than one hostname (for example, using virtual servers) that do not share the same top-level domain.
