Configuration Directives
iTP Secure WebServer System Administrator’s Guide—522659-001
A-46
Region
Message message-id text
The Message command associates text (text) with a specific message
(message-id). This command allows you to customize the iTP Secure WebServer
messages to accommodate your particular needs (for example, to conform to a
particular language, locale, or application).
The Message command overrides for specified regions any global specifications
set for the same messages by the Message directive. For further information about
using the Message directive, see Message
on page A-28.
The maximum length of the message text is 4K.
MimeType mime-type extension-list
The MimeType command specifies the MIME type identifier (mime-type) to be
returned to a web client requesting a file whose extension matches an extension
listed in extension-list. The returned MIME type identifies to the web client
the type of the data contained in the requested files (text, audio, video, image, and so
on). The web client then can interpret the data correctly, for example, as audio. The
items in extension-list are separated by blank spaces.
The default MIME-type extensions specified in the mime-types.config file are
lowercase. Therefore, a file that has the extension .HTML displays as text unless
you add HTML as an extension to the default MimeType directive or command for
HTML.
The MimeType command overrides, for specified regions, any global specifications
set for the same items by the MimeType directive. For further information about
using the MimeType directive, see MimeType
on page A-30.
Negotiation {None | Lang | Multi}
The Negotiation directive specifies how the iTP WebServer selects from
available representations of a requested page. For example, if the same content is
available in multiple languages, the server can provide the content in the user’s
preferred language. Content negotiation is defined in the HTTP/1.1 specification;
the iTP Secure WebServer supports server-driven content negotiation, as described
in that document.
The Negotiation command overrides for specified regions any global
specifications set for the same items by the Negotiation directive. For further
information about using the Negotiation directive, see Negotiation
on
page A-31.
NoCache
The NoCache directive is used to disable file caching for all URLs matching the
URL_path. In other words, none of the file opens, file stats, or file contents in the
region are cached.
The file caching mechanism is applied to all disk files on an iTP Secure WebServer.
If a small number of disk files require constant updates, frequent updates to the file
cache may also be required, and this might impact the overall performance of the
iTP Secure WebServer. The NoCache Region command can be used to exclude
