Remarks

Default Configuration

The following default caching element is not explicitly configured in the Machine.config file or in the root Web.config file, but is the default configuration returned by application in the .NET Framework version 2.0.

<caching>
  <cache disableMemoryCollection = "false" 
    disableExpiration = "false" 
    privateBytesLimit = "0" 
    percentagePhysicalMemoryUsedLimit = "90" 
    privateBytesPollTime = "00:02:00"/>

  <outputCache enableOutputCache = "true" 
    enableFragmentCache = "true" 
    sendCacheControlHeader = "true" 
    omitVaryStar = "false" >
  </outputCache>

  <outputCacheSettings>
    <outputCacheProfiles>
      <clear />
      <add name = "" 
        enabled = "true" 
        duration = "-1" 
        location = "" 
        sqlDependency = "" 
        varyByCustom = "" 
        varyByControl = "" 
        varyByHeader = "" 
        varyByParam = "" 
        noStore = "false"/>
    </outputCacheProfiles>
  </outputCacheSettings>

  <sqlCacheDependency enabled = "true" 
    pollTime = "60000">
    <databases>
       <clear />
      <add name = "" 
        connectionStringName = "" 
        pollTime = "60000"/>
    </databases>
  </sqlCacheDependency>

</caching>

Example

The following example caches a page on the server only for one minute and stores different versions of the page based on browser type and major version.

<outputCacheSettings>
  <outputCacheProfiles>
    <add name="ServerOnly" 
      duration="60" 
      varyByCustom="browser" 
      location="Server" />
  </outputCacheProfiles>
</outputCacheSettings>

When designing a page that needs to be cached in this way, you will need to add the following directive to the page:

<%@ OutputCache CacheProfile="ServerOnly" %>

For more information see @ OutputCache.
