Varnish will set TTL based on max-age, s-maxage or Expires by default (but you're free to override it in your VCL). For any other header you will have to write the VCL to do that. > I can write specific statements in varnish for that particular url, but I > don't want to do that as there will be more such urls with time.

Perhaps you should read the documentation provided with Varnish. -- Andreas _______________________________________________ varnish-misc mailing list [email protected] https://www.varnish-cache.org/lists/mailman/listinfo/varnish-misc
