Configuration
In order to make TYPO3 automatically clear the varnish cache for pages, when page content is changed or when the "Flush frontend caches" / "Flush all caches" functions are used, you need to configure at least one domain and one Varnish server configuration.
It is recommended to save the configuration records either on the rootpage or the domain start page.

TypoScript Configuration
The extension ships with a TypoScript configuration which is required in order to render uncached content elements using Edge Side Includes (ESI). Varnish fetches uncached content elements by a HTTP request using a specific page type in TYPO3.
By default the new page type 12345 is set for uncached content elements. If you need different page type
just change it by using constant editor.
