Changing the Maximum Age of a Section

One way to improve the performance and security of a Site Studio Web site is to implement a reverse proxy cache on the server. By placing a cache between the server and the user, you reduce the load put on a potentially busy server. If you have such a setup in your organization, you can use Manager to specify the maximum amount of time that a given page remains in cache.

To change the maximum age of a section, perform these steps:

1. Launch the Site Manager Application (see Launching Site Manager).

2. Select the section in the site hierarchy whose maximum age you want to change.

3. Make sure the Section tab is open.

   Enter a value (in seconds) for Maximum Age. If you do not specify a maximum age, the file remains in cache indefinitely.

4. Press <Enter> on your keyboard or click elsewhere in Manager.
