Got it. I just did some tests to see how Chrome deals with 300 or 301 with "alt-svc" header. It seems the browser does not retry the request with the alternate server. So it looks "Alt-Svc", at least in its current form, does not meet my requirements. I just modified my proposal to indicate this fact. https://docs.google.com/document/d/1gtF6Nq3iPe44515BfsU18dAxfCYOvQaekiezK8FEHu0/edit?usp=sharing I think another way is to extend the current "Alt-Svc": When combined with a special status code, say, 312, the client *should* retry the current request with the suggested alternate server. What do you think? Thanks!
