| You implement session caching with the HTTP Session Management Module for AppServers with a special filter, defined in the `web.xml`, which is configured to intercept and wrap all requests. |
| |
| You can use this HTTP module with a variety of application servers. Wrapping each request allows the interception of `getSession()` calls to be handled by <%=vars.product_name%> instead of the native container. This approach is a generic solution, which is supported by any container that implements the Servlet 2.4 specification. |

| |
| To use the module, you need to modify your application's `web.xml` files. Configuration is slightly different depending on the topology you are setting up. |
| |
| - **[Changing the Default <%=vars.product_name%> Configuration in the AppServers Module](../../tools_modules/http_session_mgmt/weblogic_changing_gf_default_cfg.html)** |
| |
| By default, the AppServers module will run <%=vars.product_name%> automatically with preconfigured settings. You can change these <%=vars.product_name%> settings. |
