[Note]Note

Automatically generated and unedited summary taken directly from the issue. .

The PARTapplicationServer now supports the HTTP/2 protocol— encrypted via SSL/TLS (negotiated via ALPN) and unencrypted (h2c). Web applications such as the dashboard benefit from this in particular: Multiple requests are bundled into a single connection, reducing wait times .[21]

To enable HTTP/2 over SSL, go to PARTadmin under “Application Server” → “AppServer Service” on the Tabbed page for “Port configuration” and select the “Offer HTTP/2.0 via SSL” option.

PARTadmin: "Offer HTTP/2.0 via SSL" option on the Tabbed page "Port configuration"

[Note]Note

WebSocket connections continue to run over HTTP/1.1. When using Negotiate authentication, browsers also fall back to HTTP/1.1. The PARTsolutions clients (Qt) continue to use HTTP/1.1.
