LimitRequestLine
LimitRequestLine size
[ server config ]
Limits the maximum size of the request line in a client request. The request line contains the HTTP method the URI of the requested resource and the protocol version number. This directive effectively limits the length of the URI. The request URI can vary widely in length, since it may contain extra- path info or CGI query strings. The default is 16380.
