<h3>Summary</h3>
<p><code class="module"><a href="../mod/mod_proxy_http2.html">mod_proxy_http2</a></code>
supports HTTP/2 only, it does <em>not</em>
provide any downgrades to HTTP/1.1. This means that the backend
needs to support HTTP/2 because HTTP/1.1 will not be used instead.</p>
<p>This module <em>requires</em> the service of <code class="module"><a href="../mod/mod_proxy.html">mod_proxy</a></code>, so in order to get the ability of
handling HTTP/2 proxy requests,
<code class="module"><a href="../mod/mod_proxy.html">mod_proxy</a></code> and <code class="module"><a href="../mod/mod_proxy_http2.html">mod_proxy_http2</a></code>
need to be both loaded by the server.</p>
<p><code class="module"><a href="../mod/mod_proxy_http2.html">mod_proxy_http2</a></code> works with incoming fronted requests
using HTTP/1.1 or HTTP/2. In both cases, requests proxied
to the same backend are sent over a single TCP connection
whenever possible (namely when the connection can be re-used).</p>
<p>Caveat: there will be no attempt to consolidate multiple HTTP/1.1
frontend requests (configured to be proxied to the same backend)
into HTTP/2 streams belonging to the same HTTP/2 request.
Each HTTP/1.1 frontend request will be proxied to the backend using
a separate HTTP/2 request (trying to re-use the same TCP connection
if possible).</p>
<p>This module relies on <a href="http://nghttp2.org/">libnghttp2</a>
to provide the core http/2 engine.</p>
<div class="warning"><h3>Warning</h3>
<p>This module is experimental. Its behaviors, directives, and
defaults are subject to more change from release to
release relative to other standard modules. Users are encouraged to
consult the "CHANGES" file for potential updates.</p>
</div>
<div class="warning"><h3>Warning</h3>
<p>Do not enable proxying until you have <a href="mod_proxy.html#access">secured your server</a>. Open proxy
servers are dangerous both to your network and to the Internet at
large.</p>
