Anonymous Ticket Attributes
The department ID in a directive or command that enables anonymous ticketing
can be any string, as long as it does not include spaces.
If you include only one group, you can omit the braces.
Omitting the group IDs turns off anonymous ticketing for all regions in the specified
department.
The default is no anonymous ticketing.
To use -EnableAnonymousTicketing in an SI_Department Region
command, enter the following:
SI_Department Mydepartment -EnableAnonymousTicketing { 10 20
30 }
-PostExpirationExtension add-seconds
For requests using a POST method, the PostExpirationExtension attribute
adds a specified number of seconds (add-seconds) to the normal lifespan of the
Session Identifier.
The PostExpirationExtension directive allows clients sufficient time to GET a
form, fill it out, and POST it back to the iTP Secure WebServer. Without the
additional time specified by the PostExpirationExtension directive, the
session identifier might expire before the Web client POSTs the form and cause
the content server to redirect the POST message to the ticketing agent for
reauthentication; as a result, the data from the POST message would be lost.
Setting PostExpirationExtension to a reasonable number of additional
seconds allows POSTs to work reliably. The default is 3 hours.
This default applies:
SI_Default -PostExpirationExtension 10800
To use -PostExpirationExtension in an SI_Default Region command:
SI_Default -PostExpirationExtension 3600
-RequireIP
The RequireIP attribute enables the iTP Secure WebServer to omit the Web
client IP address in the MAC for the Session Identifier, which is useful in the case
where a Web client’s IP address changes from request to request. Omitting the IP
address in the Session Identifier or Digital Receipt stops those clients from being
reticketed with a new anonymous user ID for each request.
If no -RequireIP attribute value is provided, the default is the value set by the
server.
To use -RequireIP in an SI_Department Region command:
SI_Department 4567 -RequireIP
