The information in this article applies to:

 - Microsoft Internet Information Services, version 5.1

SUMMARY
=======

The documentation that is included with Internet Information Services (IIS) 5.1
contains an incorrect reference to the Bandwidth Throttling feature. Bandwidth
Throttling is not available in IIS 5.1

MORE INFORMATION
================

On the computer running IIS 5.1, open a browser, and then type the following in
the address bar:

   "http://localhost/iishelp/iis/htm/core/iipx.htm" (without the quotation
   marks)

The following information is displayed in the browser:

   

   Internet Information Services Property Sheet:

   Use this property sheet to set the bandwidth used by all services and to
   configure MIME types. These default values can be changed on an individual
   basis for each site if desired.

   Enable Bandwidth Throttling

   Select this option to limit the bandwidth used by Web and FTP services on your
   computer.

   Limiting the bandwidth is especially useful if your network card has multiple
   purposes, such as e-mail and remote logons. Bandwidth throttling limits only
   the bandwidth used by static HTML files.

   MIME Map

   Select the File Types button to configure Multipurpose Internet Mail
   Extensions (MIME) mappings. These mappings set the various file types that
   the Web service returns to browsers.

This information is relevant to IIS 4.0 and IIS 5.0, but not to IIS 5.1.

To change the MIME mappings in IIS 5.1, complete the following steps:

1. Open the Internet Information Services snap-in.

2. Expand the Internet Information Services snap-in, right-click the Web Sites
   node, and then click Properties.

3. Click the HTTP Headers tab, and then click File Types under the MIME Types
   section. In this section, you can create and edit the MIME file types on the
   IIS server. For each site, you can configure the MIME settings on an
   individual basis.
