How To Create a Pull Zone

Check out the Images & Video Below
  1. Go to Manage Zones
  2. Click Create Pull Zone
  3. Give zone a name (less then 10 letters, all in lowercase)
  4. For origin url type in the root domain that you want to implement CDN on for example http://domain.com. Note: if your site automatically redirects to www.domain.com then add the www into the origin url
  5. If you would like to mask the temporary url we provide you with a custom domain add this name into the custom domain field without http:// for example cdn.domain.com. Later you will need to CNAME the custom domain to our temporary url.
  6. For the Label enter something that describes this zone (this is optional).
  7. Enable compression Only if your server supports it. Please note if you have a load balancer that gives you a dynamic origin ip you will not be able to enable compression at this time.
  8. Click Create and your zone will start provisioning. Please note that this process could take up to three minutes.
  9. Once the provisioning finishes you should get a message telling you that the: “Pull Zone has been successfully created.”  You can then Manage your Pull Zone.  You will be asked to create a CNAME record for “Custom CDN Domain” you created to point to the hostname that is generated by us (e.g. yourzonename.yourcompanyalias.netdna-cdn.com)
