- **experimental_http3** enables experimental draft HTTP/3 support. Note that HTTP/3 is not a finished spec and client support is extremely limited. This option will go away in the future. _This option is not subject to compatibility promises._
- **strict_sni_host** require that a request's `Host` header matches the value of the ServerName sent by the client's TLS ClientHello; often a necessary safeguard when using TLS client authentication.
- **strict_sni_host** require that a request's `Host` header matches the value of the ServerName sent by the client's TLS ClientHello; often a necessary safeguard when using TLS client authentication. If there's a mismatch, an HTTP status `421 Misdirected Request` response is written to the client.
This option will be implicitly turned on if [client authentication](/docs/caddyfile/directives/tls#client_auth) is configured. This disallow TLS client auth bypass (domain fronting) which could otherwise be exploited by sending an unprotected SNI value during a TLS handshake, then putting a protected domain in the Host header after establishing connection. This is a safe default, but you may explicitly turn it off with `insecure_off`, for example in the case of running a proxy where domain fronting is desired and access is not restricted based on hostname.
