Hi Sridhar,

I presented some slides [1] about HTTP proxying (including HTTP over QUIC) at the IETF 102 HTTPbis session this week. I'm not sure if your questions are motivated by that session, or if it is coincidence. There are some visualisations of the various tunnelling options (as I understand them) across the main slides and backup slides.

Regards
Lucas

>Dear Quic experts,
>
>I am Sridhar Bhaskaran from Huawei. Going through the drafts on QUIC
>transport and HTTP over QUIC, I have the following queries
>
>1. If a HTTP URI uses http:// scheme and the origin server advertises alternate
>service via QUIC, can a HTTP client use QUIC to connect to the origin server
>and still use the http:// scheme URI?
>2. If a HTTP URI uses https:// scheme and the HTTP client is configured to
>connect to a HTTP proxy and if the HTTP proxy supports QUIC, my
>understanding is the following sequence of events
>	a. HTTP client to HTTP proxy QUIC connection is setup
>	b. HTTP client issues a HTTP CONNECT request to the proxy with the
>":authority" HTTP/2 pseudo header pointing to the origin server
>	c. HTTP proxy upon getting the CONNECT request sets up a TCP
>connection with the origin server
>	d. HTTP proxy sends HTTP CONNECT response to the client
>	e. HTTP client then initiates a TLS connection towards the origin server
>via the proxy and the proxy simply tunnels it.
>	f. Actual HTTP traffic happens between client and origin server
>
>Is this correct?
>
>Where I am not clear is whether step /e/ actually happens. If it does, then for
>step /f/ is the client required to do ciphering 2 times - one for the TLS and
>other for the QUIC connection to proxy itself.
>
>Could you please clarify?
>
>Thanks
