Name	Type	Default	Description
AutoDecompression	boolean	true	Specifies whether the HTTP Channel automatically decompresses incoming request body data.
DoNotAllowDuplicateSetCookies	string	false	Prevents the HTTP Channel from sending multiple Set-Cookie headers with the same name.
MessageSizeLimit	long	-1	Limits the acceptable size of an incoming message. If a message arrives with a size larger than this value, then an error is returned to the remote client.
NoCacheCookiesControl	boolean	true	Allows the user to control whether or not the presence of a Set-Cookie header should update the Cache-Control header with a matching no-cache value. This also adds the Expires header.
ThrowIOEForInboundConnections	boolean		Specifies whether the HTTP channel creates an I/O exception when an inbound connection is closed while still in use by the servlet. The default value is set according to the configured servlet feature. Prior to Servlet 4.0, the default value is false; starting with Servlet 4.0, the default value is true.
decompressionRatioLimit	int Min: 1	200	Specifies the maximum ratio of decompressed to compressed request body payload. The HTTP channel reads the request body and verifies the ratio as the body decompresses. The channel stops decompression of the request body if the decompression ratio remains above the configured value and the decompressionTolerance is reached.
decompressionTolerance	int Min: 0	3	Specifies the maximum number of times the HTTP channel tolerates a decompression ratio above the configured ratio, depicted by the decompressionRatioLimit httpOption attribute. If this number reaches, and the next decompression cycle still contains a decompression ratio above the ratio limit, then the HTTP channel stops decompressing the request body.
http2ConnectionIdleTimeout	A period of time with second precision	0	Specifies the amount of time, in seconds, that an HTTP/2 connection will be allowed to remain idle between socket IO operations. If not specified, or set to a value of 0, there is no connection timeout set. Specify a positive integer followed by a unit of time, which can be hours (h), minutes (m), or seconds (s). For example, specify 30 seconds as 30s. You can include multiple values in a single entry. For example, 1m30s is equivalent to 90 seconds.
incomingBodyBufferSize	int Min: 1024 Max: 1048576	32768	Specifies the size of each buffer used when reading the body of an incoming HTTP message.
keepAliveEnabled	boolean	true	Enables persistent connections (HTTP keepalive). If true, connections are kept alive for reuse by multiple sequential requests and responses. If false, connections are closed after the response is sent.
limitFieldSize	int Min: 50 Max: 32768	32768	Enforces the size limits on various HTTP fields, such as request URLs, or individual header names or values. Enforcing the size limits of these fields guards against possible Denial of Service attacks. An error is returned to the remote client, if a field exceeds the allowed size.
limitNumHeaders	int Min: 50 Max: 500	500	Limits the number of HTTP headers that can exist in an incoming message. When this limit is exceeded, an error is returned to the remote client.
maxConcurrentStreams	int	200	Specifies the maximum number of streams that an HTTP/2 connection can have active at any given point. Opening streams over the limit, will result on a REFUSED_STREAM (0x7). If not specified, the default value of concurrent streams will be set to 200.
maxFrameSize	int Min: 16384 Max: 16777215	57344	Specifies the maximum allowed size of a frame payload the server will advertise in the SETTINGS_MAS_FRAME_SIZE HTTP/2 settings frame. This can be configured to any size within the range of 16,384 to 16,777,215 bytes, inclusive. If not specified, the default is set to 57,344 bytes.
maxKeepAliveRequests	int Min: -1	-1	Maximum number of persistent requests that are allowed on a single HTTP connection if persistent connections are enabled. A value of -1 means unlimited. This option supports low latency or high throughput applications, and SSL connections for use in situations where building up a new connection can be costly.
persistTimeout	A period of time with second precision	30s	Amount of time that a socket will be allowed to remain idle between requests. This setting only applies if persistent connections are enabled. Specify a positive integer followed by a unit of time, which can be hours (h), minutes (m), or seconds (s). For example, specify 30 seconds as 30s. You can include multiple values in a single entry. For example, 1m30s is equivalent to 90 seconds.
readTimeout	A period of time with second precision	60s	Amount of time to wait for a read request to complete on a socket after the first read occurs. Specify a positive integer followed by a unit of time, which can be hours (h), minutes (m), or seconds (s). For example, specify 30 seconds as 30s. You can include multiple values in a single entry. For example, 1m30s is equivalent to 90 seconds.
removeServerHeader	boolean	false	Removes server implementation information from HTTP headers.
writeTimeout	A period of time with second precision	60s	Amount of time to wait on a socket for each portion of the response data to be transmitted. Specify a positive integer followed by a unit of time, which can be hours (h), minutes (m), or seconds (s). For example, specify 30 seconds as 30s. You can include multiple values in a single entry. For example, 1m30s is equivalent to 90 seconds.
