This section describes the CLI commands that are most commonly used for configuring the HTTP cache.

enabled

Turn HTTP object caching on/off.

False = disable True = enable

xcache_header

Adding an X-Cache header to content served from the cache, which indicates to the client that the object was served from an intermediate cache.

False = disable True = enable

age_header

Enable/deactivate adding an Age header to content served from the cache to indicate to the client the number of seconds the object has been in the cache.

False = disable True = enable

date_header

If a Date header was not added by the server, add a Date header to the object served from the cache. This indicates to the client when the object was originally sent by the server to the cache.

False = disable True = enable

query_cacheable

Allow caching of objects whose URI included a query argument. When deactivated, these objects are not cached. When enabled, the request must match the URI query to be considered a hit.

False = disable True = enable

default_expire

Default expiration time of cache objects received from the server without a Cache­Control expiration header. This value may be overwritten by the Heuristic Expire setting heuristic_expire.­ If a response object from the server does not include the Cache-Control header but does include a Last-Modified header, the system will use this time to calculate the Cache-Control expiration. If unable to solicit a Last-Modified header, the system will fall back to the Cache Expire Time value.

False = disable True = enable

min_object_size

Minimum size object to store in the cache.

False = disable True = enable

max_object_size

Maximum size object to store in the cache.

False = disable True = enable

max_cache_size

­Maximum size, in bytes, of the cache. The default (zero) indicates auto configuration.

­ ­

text/css, text/blah mime_types_group_uuids ­ Allowed string group of cacheable mime types.

mime_types_black_group_uuids ­ Blocklist string group of non­cacheable mime types.

aggressive ­ Enable/disable caching objects without Cache­Control headers.

False = disable True = enable

mime_types_list

Allowed cacheable mime types. If both the Cacheable Mime Types string list and string group are empty, this defaults to the following: /// text//, images//

mime_types_black_list

Blocklist non­-cacheable mime types.

text/css, text/blah

mime_types_group_uuids

Allowed string group of cacheable mime types.

mime_types_black_group_uuids

Blocklist string group of non­cacheable mime types.

aggressive

Enable/deactivate caching objects without Cache­Control headers.

False = disable True = enable

Filter Cache Objects

Five cache-specific filtering options are defined, as revealed by the below show command (ending with two TAB characters). The same filters can be used with the clear pool subcommand.

: > show pool test-vs-pool httpcache filter 
key                 HTTP cache object's exact key.                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                        
raw_key             HTTP cache object's exact raw key.                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                    
resource_name       HTTP cache object's resource name.                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                    
resource_type       objects with resource type                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                            
type                HTTP cache object type.
