Application trigger switch to a redundant stream

An iOS app is playing using AVFoundation.

The master playlist of the content contains redundant media playlists.

Is there an API the app can use to switch/enable/disable between the redundant playlists?

We are exploring the possibility for the client to switch CDN during the streaming of a live event, like a concert.

We have real time performance monitoring of all clients.
If we we detect that users from a specific ISP will be better served by a different CDN than we want the client to seamlessly switch based on feedback from our backend.

I understand that this isn't really what the "redundant playlists" are for, but just wanted to check.
