IIS W3SVC Module Configuration

  • Article

Applies To: Windows Server 2008

Internet Information Services (IIS) 7.0 enables developers to easily configure native and managed code modules that process requests made to the Web server. In order for worker processes to load them, the modules must be configured correctly. Proper module configuration requires that the module have a unique name, and a valid type or path. Managed modules can specify whether they should be invoked only for requests to ASP.NET applications or managed handlers. When specified, this setting can optimize performance.
