This identifier contains a list of possible default HTML document names. If the browser makes a request that lacks a file name, the server will search the list of default files in order. The first file from the list it finds that actually exists in the browser-specified directory will be sent to the browser. Multiple file names can be specified as a comma-delimited list, such as Filename1, Filename2, and so on.
