You can use caching options to specify the maximum image file size that is cached on a client. If the content-type header from the origin server begins with "image/" and the content-length header specifies a size less than the maximum size configured for this option, then the system passes along the origin server's caching headers. Otherwise, the system treats the request as though caching is disabled.

To specify caching options:

1. In the admin console, choose **Users > Resource Policies > Web**.
2. If your administrator view is not already configured to show caching policies, make the following modifications:
3. Click the **Customize** button in the upper right corner of the page.
4. Select the **Caching** check box.
5. Select the **Options** check box below the **Caching** check box.
6. Click **OK**.
7. Select the C**aching > Option**s tab.
8. On the Caching Options page, specify a maximum allowable image size in the Clients should cache all images less than field.
9. On the Caching Options page, specify a maximum allowable image size in the Clients should cache all images less than field.
