Ma Referer length

All,
I have a question about the Max Referer length.
By default this is 256
I am not fully sure I understand this property. It this a
header that is sent back to the Server by a client and is
it part of the URL.
While testing our Secure IIS I ahd the error come up I
increased the value to 1080 and the error did not repeat!.
But through my search the Max Referer lenght is always
256.
SO I am trying to get feel for what the Referer really is,
is it part of the HTTP 1.1 protocol?

Any help or suggestions are appreciated
