FilterLoadOrder

  • Article

The FilterLoadOrder property is a comma-delimited list, which specifies the order that filters are to be loaded, such as Filter1, Filter2, and so on.ISAPI filters can be configured only at the global level or the Web site level. If more than one ISAPI filter is registered for a given event, IIS notifies the filters that the event occurred. ISAPI filters execute in the following order:

  • Global filters are notified before site-level filters.

  • If priorities are specified in IIS Manager, high priority filters are notified first, then medium, then low.

  • If more than one ISAPI filter is declared the same general priority level, IIS uses the order in which the filters appear in the FilterLoadOrder property to resolve the tie.
