Follow Redirect
By default, origin responses are passed "as is" to clients, including 301/302 redirects that indicate to clients that they must connect to another site to access a desired object.
When the Follow Redirect option is enabled, the CacheFly server that is serving clients over the net (the ingress server) will attempt to follow the redirect and fetch the object for the client.
You can enable the Follow Redirect option for individual CacheFly services. See more on creating and managing a service.
