Hey, thanks for responding to this. I'm sure you have things to do so I appreciate any time you take.

I have a screenshot of my CF panel here and the orange cloud is not available for that CNAME and I'm not sure why that would be. Maybe it's is a paid service I don't have access to.

The cdn CNAME is pointing to MaxCDN and they should be compatible with Cloudflare. I'm just not sure if there is a way to mask\hide that this CNAME resolves to them or not. I feel like it needs to return the IP from MaxCDN in order to even function.

I'm gonna reach out to them and see if they can offer any suggestions. Any other input you have would be appreciated. Thanks again

We don't allow CloudFlare to be enabled on that particular record because it's pointing at MaxCDN. In the particular case of proxying traffic to MaxCDN we've seen incompatibilities in the past that have lead to occasional errors. To ensure you don't encounter those errors we block enabling CloudFlare on that particular record.

Okay, that makes sense. I saw the orange cloud was available for other CNAME records and was unsure about that. I have a client that I believe currently has the orange cloud enabled on a CNAME pointing to MaxCDN but was probably done before this change was put in place. I was curious how that was setup as I couldn't do it under my account but it all makes sense now.

Thanks again for both of yalls input.
