Hello,

At some point, YLE Areena (Finnish TV) stopped working.

After a little investigation, it turns out that a few extra redirection rules for Akamai just need to be added:

{
  "group": {
    "group": "YLE (Finnish TV)",
    "action": {
      "do": 3,
      "via": "HEL",
      "status": 1
    }
  },
  "rules": [
    {
      "PK": "yleawsmpondemand.akamaized.net",
      "action": {
        "do": 3,
        "via": "HEL",
        "status": 1
      }
    },
    {
      "PK": "yleawsmpondemand-01.akamaized.net",
      "action": {
        "do": 3,
        "via": "HEL",
        "status": 1
      }
    },
    {
      "PK": "yleawsmpondemand-04.akamaized.net",
      "action": {
        "do": 3,
        "via": "HEL",
        "status": 1
      }
    },
    {
      "PK": "yleawsmpondemand-03.akamaized.net",
      "action": {
        "do": 3,
        "via": "HEL",
        "status": 1
      }
    },
    {
      "PK": "yleawsmpondemand-02.akamaized.net",
      "action": {
        "do": 3,
        "via": "HEL",
        "status": 1
      }
    }
  ]
}

I tried a variety of programmes to capture all of the Akamai servers in use, and I didn't encounter anything beyond 04, but I can't rule out there being some.

I'm not sure whether ControlD supports wildcard hostnames these days, in which case yleawsmpondemand*.akamaized.net would be enough to capture all of the above.
