The Version 6.1 Caching Proxy Administration Guide includes newly documented features and corrective updates.
The most significant features are:
For information on configuring a forward proxy, see Forward proxy.
For information on the transparent (forward) proxy directive, see TransparentProxy -- Enable transparent proxy on Linux.
For information on these methods, see Enable WebDAV methods, MS Exchange methods, and User-defined methods.
For information on these directives, see CompressionFilterAddContentType -- Specify the content type of HTTP response you want to compress and CompressionFilterEnable -- Enable the compression filter to compress the HTTP responses.
For information on this directive, see NoCacheOnRange -- Specify no caching for Range requests.
For information on this directive, see OptimizeRuleMapping -- Optimize the rule mapping process for incoming requests when the number of rules increases.
Similar to the Map directive, MapQuery uses both the path and query string to match the rule.
For information on this directive, see MapQuery -- Change matching requests to a new request string, using the request path and query string to match the rule.
For information on this directive, see RuleCaseSense -- Maps requests from application URLs that are not case sensitive.
For information on these directives, see PKCS11DefaultCert, PKCS11DriverPath, PKCS11TokenPassword -- Supports IBM 4960 PCI Cryptographic Accelerator Card (AIX only).
For information on the logical expression option on this directive, see SSLCertificate -- Specify key labels for certificates.
Caching Proxy provides directives that require additional pattern matching at runtime. To improve the Caching Proxy performance, you can use these directives as options in the Proxy or ProxyWAS rule. For more information on these additional options for Proxy or the ProxyWAS rule, see Proxy -- Specify proxy protocols or reverse proxy.
