DESCRIPTION
       You can use the object-type component to manage recognized types of
       objects. These object types are used to classify documents processed by
       WebAccelerator. A document can be classified by its file extension or
       MIME type.

EXAMPLES
       create object-type documents.abcd extensions add { abc abcd } mime-
       types add { text/abcd text/x-abcd }

       Creates a WebAccelerator object type named documents.abcd that includes
       all documents with extensions .abc or .abcd, and MIME types text/abcd
       or text/x-abcd.

       delete object-type documents.abcd

       Deletes the pool named documents.abcd.

       list object-type documents.abcd

       Displays properties of the object-type named documents.abcd.

OPTIONS
       app-service
	    Specifies the name of the application service to which the object
	    belongs. The default value is none. Note: If the strict-updates
	    option is enabled on the application service that owns the object,
	    you cannot modify or delete the object. Only the application
	    service can modify or delete the object.

       code Specifies the numeric non-zero code of the object type, which is
	    used troubleshooting and performance reporting. Each object type
	    must have unique code. If not supplied, it will be generated by
	    the system. Use keyword generate to have the system generate a new
	    unique code.

       compression
	    Specifies if this object type supports compression and when it can
	    be enabled. The default value is disabled.

	    Valid values are:

	    disabled
		 Never compresses the response. If you use this option, be
		 aware that it overrides any compression setting configured
		 for the assembly rule that the WebAccelerator system matches
		 to the specified object type. You should use this option only
		 if you want the WebAccelerator system to ignore assembly
		 rules for the specified object type.

	    policy-controlled
		 Specifies that compression is controlled by WebAccelerator
		 policy. The compression setting is specified in the assembly
		 rule that the WebAccelerator system matched for this object
		 type. In most cases, you should use this option.

       description
	    Specifies the object type description.

       extensions
	    Specifies the extension the WebAccelerator system should find in
	    the file name or Content-Disposition header of the response, in
	    order to match to the specified object type.

       group
	    Displays the group portion of the name.

       mime-types
	    Specifies the MIME-types that the WebAccelerator system should
	    find in the Content-Type header of the response, in order to match
	    to the specified object type.

	    name Specifies a unique name for the component. This option is
		 required for the commands create, delete, and modify. The
		 name of the object type must be in form group.type where
		 group is used to organize object type based on common usage
		 pattern. for example, documents, binary, pages. The type is
		 used to uniquely identify the object type within a group.

	    partition
		 Displays the administrative partition within which the object
		 type resides.

	    regex
		 Displays the items that match the regular expression. The
		 regular expression must be preceded by an at sign (@[regular
		 expression]) to indicate that the identifier is a regular
		 expression. See help regex for a description of regular
		 expression syntax.

       symmetric-compression
	    Specifies whether this object type will be compressed on the WAN
	    link in a symmetric multibox deployment.
