IIS7 Deployments calls for ETag Usage Review if using
Entity Tags (ETags) are commonly used in Web applications to effectively leverage the power of using web farms, which is a non-fancy term for HTTP/S load balancing. In web farms, a common practice is to set what is called ETags as it helps enhance performance in web farm scenarios. ETags is controlled in IIS by a metabase property (ETAG_CHANGENUMBER) and this value is sent back to clients via response headers as instructed by the HTTP RFC 2616.
