Multi-CDN Quick Setup Guide

Multi-CDN Quick Setup Guide

Follow the instructions below to quickly set up your Multi-CDN:

  1. Navigate to the Origins page and create a new origin.
  2. (Optional) To set up an origin shield, go to the Distributions page and create a new Shield Distribution by selecting the Shield CDN tab.
  3. If you intend to use your own domain name, you must upload a corresponding TLS/SSL certificate. To do this, visit the Certificates page and add a new certificate.
    • If you prefer not to use your own domain, you may utilize Leaseweb’s shared TLS/SSL certificate by selecting the Shared TLS/SSL option during distribution creation.
  4. Proceed to the Distributions page and create a new distribution linked to the origin created in Step 1:
    • Choose the appropriate TLS/SSL certificate as outlined in Steps 2 and 3.
    • This step will initialize the distribution with basic policies.
  5. Click the Modify action button on your newly created distribution to configure the desired Cache, Delivery, Security and other policies.
  1. Allow up to 30 minutes for the distribution to propagate across all CDN providers.
    • During this period, you may test the setup using the CNAME target found in the distribution’s Modify section.
    • Please note that some providers may not respond until propagation is complete.
  2. Once propagation is finalized, you can begin using the distribution with your application.
