To further improve our CDN Mesh Delivery for Enterprise product, we released a new feature that will help customers to better handle the traffic inside their corporate networks, and avoid inter-site data transfers.

The Streamroot Subnets API allows you to create, read, update and delete sites. Sites are groups of users forming a mesh network that only exchange video data within itself. With well-defined sites, no video data will be transferred from one site to another ensuring that each sites upload bandwidth is not used, and that download bandwidth is only used to get content from the CDN for a small fraction of users.

A site is composed of:

• a name which must be unique and matching the following regexp:  ^[a-zA-Z0-9_ \\(\\)-]{1,64}$
• a list of public IPs (IPv4 or IPv6)
• a list of subnets (IPv4 or IPv6)

All endpoints are only accessible via HTTPS and take/return JSON payloads.

Enabling Subnets

A new property has been added for CDN Mesh Delivery for Enterprise customers: Subnet matching. This will need to be toggled ON to add subnets to Streamroot. Properties are a way to fine-tune various parameters across all your CDN Mesh Delivery integrations and can be accessed under the “Properties” section in the dashboard. See our documentation for more information on them.

Types

  "name": "Name",
