How to set up caching of static files in asp.net?

Question

ASP.NET

Good afternoon! Previously, I did not work with asp, the task arose to configure caching of css files. I found this instruction:
metanit.com/sharp/mvc5/20.5.php
I do as it says, I inserted it into web.config

<system.webServer>
      <staticContent>
        <clientCache cacheControlCustom="public;max-age" cacheControlMaxAge="10.00:00:00" cacheControlMode="UseMaxAge" />
      </staticContent>
    </system.webServer>

As a result, an error 500 is issued. Tell me, how to properly configure the cache?

I'm sorry, but why do you need to manually cache css? Do you update it every 5 minutes? And after updating the application, hang a sticker - "do not forget to reset the cache." Asp.net has a StyleBundle mechanism that will glue your css for you and will control versioning - when it changes, it will update the hash and the client will pick up new styles using the new link received.
