Use the ISAPI Filters feature page to manage a list of .dll files that change or enhance the functionality provided by IIS. For example, an ISAPI filter can control which files are mapped to a URL, modify the response sent by the server, or perform other actions to modify the behavior of the server.
Note
ISAPI filters and extensions are replaced by the new IIS 8 modules API. For more information about the IIS 8 modules API, see Native-Code HTTP Modules.
Sort the list by clicking one of the feature page column headings or select a value from the Group by drop-down list to group similar items.
