RETRY_AFTER

The Retry-After response HTTP header indicates how long the user agent should wait before making a follow-up request. There are two main cases this header is used:

SEC_WEBSOCKET_ACCEPT

The |Sec-WebSocket-Accept| header field is used in the WebSocket opening handshake. It is sent from the server to the client to confirm that the server is willing to initiate the WebSocket connection.

SEC_WEBSOCKET_EXTENSIONS

The |Sec-WebSocket-Extensions| header field is used in the WebSocket opening handshake. It is initially sent from the client to the server, and then subsequently sent from the server to the client, to agree on a set of protocol-level extensions to use for the duration of the connection.

SEC_WEBSOCKET_KEY

The |Sec-WebSocket-Key| header field is used in the WebSocket opening handshake. It is sent from the client to the server to provide part of the information used by the server to prove that it received a valid WebSocket opening handshake. This helps ensure that the server does not accept connections from non-WebSocket clients (e.g., HTTP clients) that are being abused to send data to unsuspecting WebSocket servers.

SEC_WEBSOCKET_PROTOCOL

The |Sec-WebSocket-Protocol| header field is used in the WebSocket opening handshake. It is sent from the client to the server and back from the server to the client to confirm the subprotocol of the connection. This enables scripts to both select a subprotocol and be sure that the server agreed to serve that subprotocol.

SEC_WEBSOCKET_VERSION

The |Sec-WebSocket-Version| header field is used in the WebSocket opening handshake. It is sent from the client to the server to indicate the protocol version of the connection. This enables servers to correctly interpret the opening handshake and subsequent data being sent from the data, and close the connection if the server cannot interpret that data in a safe manner.

SERVER

Contains information about the software used by the origin server to handle the request.

SET_COOKIE

Used to send cookies from the server to the user agent.

STRICT_TRANSPORT_SECURITY

Tells the client to communicate with HTTPS instead of using HTTP.

TE

Informs the server of transfer encodings willing to be accepted as part of the response.

TRAILER

Allows the sender to include additional fields at the end of chunked messages.

TRANSFER_ENCODING

Specifies the form of encoding used to safely transfer the entity to the client.

UPGRADE

Used as part of the exchange to upgrade the protocol.

UPGRADE_INSECURE_REQUESTS

Sends a signal to the server expressing the client’s preference for an encrypted and authenticated response.

USER_AGENT

Contains a string that allows identifying the requesting client’s software.

VARY

Determines how to match future requests with cached responses.

VIA

Added by proxies to track routing.

WARNING

General HTTP header contains information about possible problems with the status of the message.

WWW_AUTHENTICATE

Defines the authentication method that should be used to gain access to a resource.

X_CONTENT_TYPE_OPTIONS

Marker used by the server to indicate that the MIME types advertised in the content-type headers should not be changed and be followed.

X_DNS_PREFETCH_CONTROL

Controls DNS prefetching.

X_FRAME_OPTIONS

Indicates whether or not a browser should be allowed to render a page in a frame.

X_XSS_PROTECTION

Stop pages from loading when an XSS attack is detected.
