By default this field is checked to indicate that Edge Side Include (ESI) is enabled and you want ESI processing used to cache responses.

If this field is unchecked, ESI processing is disabled for the plug-in and the other ESI plug-in properties are ignored.

When checked, the ESI processor receives invalidations from the application server.

This field corresponds to the ESIInvalidationMonitor element in the plugin-cfg.xml file. It is ignored if Edge Side Include (ESI) processing is not enabled for the plug-in.

By default, this field is not selected. Clear the check box if you do not want the application server to send invalidations to the ESI processor.
