Apache HTTP Server Version 2.4
Apache HTTP Server Version 2.4
| Description: | Easily restrict what HTTP methods can be used on the server |
|---|---|
| Status: | Experimental |
| Module Identifier: | allowmethods_module |
| Source File: | mod_allowmethods.c |
This module makes it easy to restrict what HTTP methods can be used on a server. The most common configuration would be:
<Location "/"> AllowMethods GET POST OPTIONS </Location>
| Description: | Restrict access to the listed HTTP methods |
|---|---|
| Syntax: | AllowMethods reset|HTTP-method
[HTTP-method]... |
| Default: | AllowMethods reset |
| Context: | directory |
| Status: | Experimental |
| Module: | mod_allowmethods |
The HTTP-methods are case sensitive and are generally, as per
RFC, given in upper case. The GET and HEAD methods are treated as
equivalent. The reset keyword can be used to
turn off mod_allowmethods in a deeper nested context:
<Location "/svn"> AllowMethods reset </Location>
The TRACE method cannot be denied by this module;
use TraceEnable instead.
mod_allowmethods was written to replace the rather
kludgy implementation of Limit and
LimitExcept.
