Last Updated:Oct 07, 2023

Usage notes

  • Configuration limit: You can add a maximum of 120 rules.

  • Feature conflict: The Conditional Origin feature conflicts with the Advance Origin feature. You can configure only one of the two features.

  • Matching order: The system attempts to match rules in the configuration list in descending order. If a rule is matched, the system stops the matching.

Differences between the conditional origin, basic origin, and advanced origin

  • The address of a basic origin is the default address of the origin server used for back-to-origin routing. If a user request does not match the rule of a conditional origin or advanced origin, the address of the basic origin is used.

  • If a user request matches the rule of a conditional origin or advanced origin, the address of the origin server that is specified in the conditional origin or advanced origin settings is used.

  • The conditional origin feature is an enhanced version of the advanced origin feature. The conditional origin feature can use rules configured in the rules engine. This allows you to configure more flexible back-to-origin policies.
