crs#crs0..n

Refine what CRSs the map engine lists as being supported, as opposed to including all of them (as there might be thousands of CRSs that the WMS server says that it supports).

Without any crs tags a map engine will report all the projections the WMS server says it supports. By adding one or more crs tag you can refine this list so that the map engine only includes those projections that you're actually interested in using (which helps to improve performance). 

tokens#tokens0..1Additional tokens to add to the request. The tokens available are dependent on the WMS server implementation and are generally used to support implementation specific extensions to the WMS specification.
legend#legend0..1Modify the legend. Available from 2.6.9.

Note

As of version 1.3.7 of the WMS bundle, the password can be encrypted using the OSGi encrypt command.

WMS 1.3.0

Don't "upgrade" to WMS 1.3.0 unless you really have to.

Version 2.15.16 of the com.cohga.server.map.wms bundle (released as part of Weave 2.5.21) improves support for WMS 1.3.0 by supporting map services that require their axis order to be swapped.
