Edit Cache Control Directives

Use this page to control which information on your server can be cached by a proxy server.

Using cache-control directives, you override the default caching of the proxy to protect sensitive information from being cached, and perhaps retrieved later. For these directives to work, the proxy server must comply with HTTP 1.1.

The following table describes the fields and buttons on the page. The left column lists the fields and buttons; the right column describes the functionality.

Choose Entire Server to apply your change to the whole virtual server, or navigate to a specific directory within a virtual server.

Cache Control Response Directives

Specifies what type of information is cachable. The choices are as follows:

  • Public. The response is cachable by any cache. This is the default.

  • Private. The response is only cachable by a private (non-shared) cache.

  • No Cache. The response must not be cached anywhere.

  • No Store. The cache must not store the request or response anywhere in nonvolatile storage.

  • Must Revalidate. The cache entry must be revalidated from the originating server.

  • Maximum Age (sec). The client does not accept a response that has an age greater than this age.
