Hotlink protection prevents the use of your images by any other websites. You can enable this feature for a created CDN from the BlazingCDN portal. Let us take a look at how that is done.

BlazingCDN Portal > Anycast CDN > CDN Zone List

1. Follow the workflow mentioned above to land on the CDN Zone List.

2. Select a CDN zone by clicking the CDN zone name.

3. From the CDN zone screen, open the Hotlink Protection section.

4. Here, enable the Hotlink protection toggle button.

5. Once the toggle is enabled, it reveals the Domains allowed for hotlinking box. You can use this box to enter any domains you want to allow hotlinking for.

6. Once the domains are entered, click the Save changes button.

7. This enables the hotlink protection and a toast message is displayed that says “Hotlink protection changes have been applied”.
