check_authorization( )In connection with CAD (Caching Authenticated Data) and CPAD (Caching Proxy-Authenticated
Data) support, check_authorization( ) is used when you know that the upstream device
sometimes (not always or never) requires the user to authenticate and be authorized for this object.
Setting the value to yes results in a GIMS (Get If Modified Since) to check authorization upstream,
and the addition of a “Cache-Control: must-revalidate” header to the downstream response.
Syntax
check_authorization(yes|no)
The default is no.
