What do we will configure in struts-config.xml?

                                            STRUTS-CONFIG.XML

The main control file in the Struts framework is the struts-config.xml XML file, where action mappings are specified.

This file’s structure is described by the struts-config DTD file, which is defined at http://jakarta.apache.org/struts/. A copy of the DTD can be found on the /docs/dtds subdirectory of the framework’s installation root directory. The top-level element is struts-config.
