Configuration
| Name | Type, Usage Constraints, Defaults | Description |
|---|---|---|
| BlockOnError | enum (on|off|log); optional, basic, conditional; default: on | Newline separated list of conditions, defining whether requests containing malformed xml should be blocked (on), or only logged (log). In case of "off", the request body is not inspected at all by this filter. |
| StatusCode | integer; optional, basic; min: 100, max: 1000, default: 403 | Defines the response status code of a blocked response. |
| LoadExternalDocuments | boolean; default: false | ADVANCED Let the XmlFilter load external documents. If this is set to true, the proxy might do out-calls to the internet or intranet. This might or might not be harmful depending on your firewall setup. Furthermore, the proxy might get malicious DTDs from the internet with possible future flaws in it. |
| SchemaDirectory | string; optional, basic | Defines the directory where schemas are located. |
| SchemaCatalog | string; optional, advanced | Defines the mapping between a systemId and a file inside the configured schema directory. This mapping is defined as a newline-separated list of strings with the following syntax: <systemId> : <filename>. For example: http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/strict.dtd : strict.dtd. |
