IIS 4.0 and 5.0 provide a simple mechanism by which webmasters can modify the HTTP headers. The Microsoft Management Console (MMC) can be used to specify and customize headers. To modify headers, access the MMC by performing the following:
- Start the Microsoft Management Console.
- Expand the Internet Information Server line.
- Expand the ServerName line.
- At Default Web Site, right click and choose Properties.
- Select the HTTP Headers tab.
From here, webmasters may choose either to set the expires header or to add HTTP headers. Both standard (ie, cache-control) and custom (ie, Author or P3P) headers can be added here. To set the expires header, click Enable Content Expiration. To add an HTTP header, perform the following:
- Click Add.
- Under Custom Header Name, enter the name of the header. ie, Author
- Under Custom Header Value, enter the value of the header. ie, Internet Services
Following the configuration of the HTTP headers, click OK twice to return to the MMC window. IIS will now send out the specified headers.
Microsoft IIS 3.0
It is recommended that webmasters upgrade from IIS 3 to IIS 4. IIS 3 does not support the HTTP 1.1 standard. Customized headers cannot be created through the GUI system. If custom headers are needed, it can be done via ASP at the file level.
