cache( )
Controls HTTP and FTP caching behavior. A number of CPL properties affect caching behavior.
•If
bypass_cache(yes) is set, then the cache is not accessed and the value of cache( ) is
irrelevant.
•If
cache(yes) is set, then the force_cache(all) property setting modifies the definition of what
is considered a cacheable response.
• The properties
cookie_sensitive(yes) and ua_sensitive(yes) have the same effect on
caching as
cache(no).
Other CPL properties that affect caching behavior are listed in the “See Also” section below.
Remember that any conflict between their settings is resolved by CPL’s evaluation logic, which uses
the property value that was last set when evaluation ends.
Syntax
cache(yes|no)
The default is yes.
where:
•
yes—Specifies the default behavior: cache responses from the origin server if they are cacheable.
•
no—Do not store the response in the cache, and delete any object that was previously cached for
this URL.
Layer and Transaction Notes
• Use only in
<Cache> layers.
• Applies to proxy transactions.
Example
