#  Alt-Used

The [ ` Alt-Used ` ](/en-US/docs/Web/HTTP/Headers/Alt-Used) HTTP header is
used in requests to identify the alternative service in use, just as the [ `
Host ` ](/en-US/docs/Web/HTTP/Headers/Host) HTTP header field identifies the
host and port of the origin.

The is intended to allow alternative services to detect loops, differentiate
traffic for purposes of load balancing, and generally to ensure that it is
possible to identify the intended destination of traffic, since introducing
this information after a protocol is in use has proven to be problematic.

When a client uses an alternative service for a request, it can indicate this
to the server using the [ ` Alt-Used ` ](/en-US/docs/Web/HTTP/Headers/Alt-
Used) HTTP header.

##  Syntax
