Configuring Authentication Methods (Windows, Forms, Basic) in IIS
Windows authentication is suitable for internal applications and is automatically authenticated through domain accounts; the steps are to open IIS Manager, select a site, enable Windows authentication, and ensure HTTPS is used. Forms authentication is suitable for custom login pages. You need to configure the login URL and timeout time in web.config, and develop a login page to verify users, encrypt your password and use HTTPS. Basic authentication is lightweight but not secure. It is only used when HTTPS is enabled. It needs to be enabled in IIS and cooperate with local or domain accounts. Password leakage is often caused by ignoring HTTPS.

Managing MIME Types for Specific File Extensions in IIS
MIME type is a mechanism by which the server identifies file content types, and missing or incorrect configuration can cause resource loading to fail. There are two main ways to manage MIME types with specific extensions in IIS: 1. Add or modify them through the IIS manager graphical interface; 2. Configure in the web.config file. Common MIME types that need to be added manually include .webmanifest, .woff2, .svg, .mp4 and .pdf. Notes include inheritance issues, IIS version differences and browser cache impact. Proper configuration is essential to ensure that modern web resources are loading properly.

Configuring Request Limits and Connection Timeouts in IIS
To limit the size of client requests, the maxAllowedContentLength parameter can be modified in web.config, such as setting it to 104857600 (100MB), and synchronizing the maxRequestLength of ASP.NET at the same time; to reasonably set the connection timeout time, it can be modified through the IIS manager or appcmd.exe command, with the default of 120 seconds, and the API scenario is recommended to set it to 30-90 seconds; if the request queue is full, you can increase MaxClientConn and QueueLength, optimize application performance, and enable load balancing to relieve stress.

Deploying ASP.NET Core Applications to an IIS Environment
When deploying ASP.NETCore applications to IIS, you need to pay attention to the following key points: 1. Install the .NETCore runtime and HostingBundle, otherwise it will cause HTTP500 errors; 2. Make sure to include web.config when publishing the application and select the appropriate publishing mode; 3. Configure the IIS site and application pool, set "unmanaged code" and correct permissions; 4. Check the logs and manually test the Kestrel startup situation when there is a problem.

Configuring HTTP Response Headers for Caching and Security in IIS
Configuring HTTP response headers in IIS to optimize cache and improve security can be achieved by setting cache-related headers and adding security response headers. 1. Set cache-related headers: By configuring the clientCache element in the web.config file, set the Cache-Control and Expires headers for static resources, for example, use cacheControlMaxAge to specify the cache time, and fine-grained control can also be performed for specific file types (such as .jpg), but avoid HTML page caching for too long. 2. Add security-related headers: Configure X-Content-Type-Optio through customHeaders in web.config

Troubleshooting Common IIS 500 Internal Server Errors
When encountering an IIS500 error, 1. First check whether the Web.config file has syntax errors or configuration conflicts, such as the tag is not closed or repeated configuration; 2. Confirm whether the application pool status and settings are correct, including the running status, .NETCLR version and access permissions; 3. Turn on detailed error information to obtain specific error clues, which can be implemented through IIS manager or web.config configuration; 4. Check for code exceptions and dependency problems, such as database connection failure, DLL missing or unhandled backend exceptions. The above steps help accurately locate and resolve the specific causes of 500 errors.

Securing IIS Against Common Web Vulnerabilities
Strengthening IIS security requires five steps: 1. Disable unnecessary functions and services, such as WebDAV, FTP, etc.; 2. Close the default website and test pages, delete or prohibit access to useless script directories; 3. Configure request filtering rules to prevent illegal extensions, directory traversal and super long URLs, and use URLs to rewrite and hide the real path; 4. Enable HTTPS and force jumps, and set security response headers such as HSTS, X-Content-Type-Options; 5. Regularly update system patches, enable logging and use tools to analyze abnormal access behavior. Through these measures, we can effectively prevent common attack methods such as SQL injection, XSS, directory traversal, and improve the overall security of the server.

Configuring Dynamic Compression for Appropriate Content Types in IIS
When configuring dynamic compression in IIS, selecting content types reasonably can improve performance. First enable the dynamic compression module, install and configure web.config or IIS manager through the server manager. Secondly, set appropriate content types, such as HTML, CSS, JavaScript, and JSON, text content is suitable for compression, while pictures and videos are not suitable. Finally, pay attention to the impact of client compatibility and performance, monitor CPU load, client support status and small file compression effects, and adjust the configuration based on actual traffic to obtain the best benefits.

Managing Application Pool Identities and Associated File System Permissions for IIS
To solve the IIS application pool authentication account permission problem, first, you need to confirm the identity account used by the application pool. The default is IISAppPool{AppPoolName}, which can be viewed or modified through the IIS manager; secondly, make sure that the account has corresponding permissions to the website physical path (such as D:\MyWebSite). The operation steps are: Right-click the folder → Properties → Security → Edit → Add the corresponding account and set the read, write and other permissions; common errors such as 401.3 is due to lack of read permission, 500.19 may be due to insufficient permissions for web.config file, and failure to upload may be due to lack of write permissions; pay attention to whether the inheritance permissions are effective, the UNC path needs to be configured with a username and password, and it may be necessary to modify it after the username and password.

Implementing WebDAV Functionality on an IIS Web Server
How to set up WebDAV on IIS? First, install the necessary components, including the WebServer (IIS) role and WebDAV Publishing function; second, configure WebDAV in the IIS manager to set authorization rules and operation permissions; then configure authentication and security, enable HTTPS, Windows authentication and set NTFS permissions; finally troubleshoot common problems, such as connection failure, permission errors, and upload failures. After correct settings, secure remote file management can be achieved, and it is necessary to test whether the access and editing functions are normal.
