Under CDN in the Qrator Labs dashboard, you can enable and configure CDN integration for the current domain or service.

Enable integrationEnable integration

If CDN integration is not enabled for a domain or service, then buttons for configuring such integration are available in this section.

The required settings depend on which CDN provider you need to configure integration with.

Enable Qrator.CDNEnable Qrator.CDN

1. Select the domain in Domains.

2. Select the menu item CDN.

3. Click the link Qrator.CDN. In the dialog box that appears, click Turn on Qrator.CDN.

4. The dialog will list the host (domain name) that Qrator.CDN will allocate for files for your domain or service. This host is the main one and is available regardless of the settings. Additionally, you can connect any number of other hosts.

   Enter the hosts in the CDN Hostnames field, separating them with line breaks. Click Next.

   Note

   You will be able to change the list of CDN hosts later.

5. Go to the control panel of your domain name registrar. For each of the hosts that CDN should respond to, create a CNAME record pointing to the primary CDN host provided by Qrator.CDN. For your convenience, an example CNAME record will be shown in the last step in Qrator.CDN setup dialog.

   If necessary, wait for the DNS cache to update after the change has been made.
