Managed Pipeline mode
  • Integrated mode allows IIS to process requests in the application pool by using the IIS 7 and later integrated pipeline. This allows ASP.NET modules to participate in IIS request processing regardless of the type of resource requested.
  • Classic mode uses the IIS 6.0 processing pipeline for hosting ASP.NET applications. In this mode, requests are processed initially through IIS 7 and later modules, and ASP.NET requests are further processed by the aspnet_isapi.dll.
