Abstract
Methods and systems are described for enabling network-initiated control of streaming of segmented content from a content delivery node to at least one client, the client being configured to access at least part of the segmented content on the basis of a manifest file. A first manifest file is received identifying one or more segments and location information for locating one or more content delivery nodes configured to transmit one or more segments to at least one client. In response to reception of the first manifest file, channel set-up information is provided. At least one streaming control channel is established between at least one client and a control channel server function associated with the content delivery node on the basis of the control channel set-up information. The at least one client is configured for receiving at least one manifest file update message via the streaming control channel.
