Setting Cache Control Directives

Cache-control directives are a way for Enterprise Server to control what
information is 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.
For more information HTTP 1.1, see the Hypertext Transfer Protocol--HTTP/1.1
specification (RFC 2068) at:
http://www.ietf.org/
To set cache control directives, follow these steps:
From the Class Manager, click the Content Management tab.

Click Cache Control Directives

For more information see the online help for the Cache Control Directives page.
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.
