</div>Is that really the case? According to the documentation, both concepts still exists. As I understand them, a ban is a permanent filter, a purge is a deletion of cache object(s).<br></blockquote><div><br></div><div>
No. Bans are not permanent. They are *lazy*. They are applied at a later time, when the relevant object is requested. If the object is *newer* than the ban the band doesn't apply.</div></div><br>-- <br><img src="http://www.varnish-software.com/sites/default/files/varnishsoft_white_190x47.png"><div>
