Notes:

  1. The push stream domain is for ingesting stream from streamer to CDNetworks ingest point. While the pull stream domain is for stream playback. Though push stream domain and pull stream domain works in pair, however, one push stream domain may mapping to multiple pull stream domains, while one pull stream domain can only mapping to one push stream domain.
  2. If you need to add a new pull stream domain for an existing push stream domain, you can also do it by entering the existing push stream domain and the new pull stream domain need to be added.
  3. From the domain list, you can tell whether a domain is push stream domain or pull stream domain by the “Domain Type”.
