36 <h3>Summary</h3>
37
38 <p>This module makes it easy to restrict what HTTP methods can be
39 used on a server. The most common configuration would be:</p>
40
41 <pre class="prettyprint lang-config">&lt;Location "/"&gt;
42    AllowMethods GET POST OPTIONS
43 &lt;/Location&gt;</pre>

67 <p>The HTTP-methods are case sensitive and are generally, as per
68 RFC, given in upper case. The GET and HEAD methods are treated as
69 equivalent. The <code>reset</code> keyword can be used to
70 turn off <code class="module"><a href="../mod/mod_allowmethods.html">mod_allowmethods</a></code> in a deeper nested context:</p>
71
72 <pre class="prettyprint lang-config">&lt;Location "/svn"&gt;
73    AllowMethods reset
74 &lt;/Location&gt;</pre>

77 <div class="note"><h3>Caution</h3>
78   <p>The TRACE method cannot be denied by this module;
