header

Adds an HTTP header to the CNA web server’s response string.

header P3P [ add | append | set ] <text>
 
header P3P unset
 
no header append P3P
 

• text--text to be sent as the header content, enclosed in single quote marks (‘...’); should contain a URL to an .xml file describing your web site’s privacy policy and, optionally, a Compact Policy statement, in the following form:
• ‘policyref=“http://<domain>/<path to .xml file>”, CP=“<P3P policy codes>”’

The header command is only valid in the ustat-server-map configuration mode, which requires privileged-level access (see ip http ustat-server map).

Use once per map.

Use the header command to add a header of the specified type to the response that is sent by a USTAT web server. Currently, CNA only allows you to append a P3P (Platform for Privacy Preferences) header, which requires the P3P keyword as part of the command:

The header text can consist of two parts:

• URL to a privacy policy statement in .xml format
• Compact Policy (CP) which summarizes your privacy policy in browser-readable codes

For more information about the structure of a policy statement, see the World Wide Web Consortium web site, at http://www.w3.org.

The value of text should be enclosed in single quotes, with the URL and the policy codes enclosed in double quotes. The entire string between the single quotes will be sent as the contents of a P3P header when the HTTP server responds to a request.

The header will be added to the response sent by the web server on the USTAT module being configured when it sends the single-pixel .gif file to a web surfer. In order to be fully P3P compliant, you must add the header to each USTAT on CNA.

Use the add keyword to create a new header.

Use the append keyword to append to the existing header.

Use the set keyword to overwrite the existing header.

Use the unset keyword to clear the existing header.

Use the no form of the command to remove the P3P header from the web server’s response.
