The server understands and is willing to comply with the client's request, via
|
|
the Upgrade header field<sup>[1](#ref-1)</sup>, for a change in the application
|
|
protocol being used on this connection.
|
|
|
|
The server MUST generate an Upgrade header field in the response that indicates
|
|
which protocol(s) will be switched to immediately after the empty line that
|
|
terminates the 101 response.
|
|
|
|
It is assumed that the server will only agree to switch protocols when it is
|
|
advantageous to do so. For example, switching to a newer version of HTTP might
|
|
be advantageous over older versions, and switching to a real-time, synchronous
|
|
protocol might be advantageous when delivering resources that use such features.
