Cache control

This section explains how to set up the Cache Control Header Override (CCHO).
 

A Cache Control Header Override setting consists of the following:
 

  • An internal Cache Control policy specified as TTL defaulting to seconds or optionally followed by one of the following letters to indicate units:

    • s—seconds
    • m—minutes
    • h—hours
    • d—days
    • w—weeks
    • y—years
       

Alternately, the internal policy can be set to "as-is", "no-cache", or "no-store".
 

  • An external Cache Control policy, following the same rules as the internal policy.

  • A force attribute with possible values "yes" and "no". (This is an optional value for the external Cache Control policy only.)

Creates a new Cache Control Group. Supports a CCHOMode object, which includes an internal and external policy identifier and an optional force attribute. (For details, see Cache Control category summary section.)
