     2269   For the purpose of defining the behavior of caches and non-caching
     2270   proxies, we divide HTTP headers into two categories:
     2271  <list style="symbols">
     2272      <t>End-to-end headers, which are  transmitted to the ultimate
     2273        recipient of a request or response. End-to-end headers in
     2274        responses MUST be stored as part of a cache entry and &MUST; be
     2275        transmitted in any response formed from a cache entry.</t>
     2276
     2277      <t>Hop-by-hop headers, which are meaningful only for a single
     2278        transport-level connection, and are not stored by caches or
     2279        forwarded by proxies.</t>
     2280  </list>
     2281</t>
     2282<t>
     2283   The following HTTP/1.1 headers are hop-by-hop headers:
     2284  <list style="symbols">
     2285      <t>Connection</t>
     2286      <t>Keep-Alive</t>

     2295<t>
     2296   All other headers defined by HTTP/1.1 are end-to-end headers.
     2297</t>
     2298<t>
     2299   Other hop-by-hop headers &MUST; be listed in a Connection header
     2300   (<xref target="header.connection"/>).

     2311<t>
     2312   Some features of HTTP/1.1, such as Digest Authentication, depend on the
     2313   value of certain end-to-end headers. A transparent proxy &SHOULD-NOT;
     2314   modify an end-to-end header unless the definition of that header requires
     2315   or specifically allows that.
     2316</t>
     2317<t>
     2318   A transparent proxy &MUST-NOT; modify any of the following fields in a
     2319   request or response, and it &MUST-NOT; add any of these fields if not
     2320   already present:
     2321  <list style="symbols">
     2322      <t>Content-Location</t>
     2323      <t>Content-MD5</t>

     2326  </list>
     2327</t>
     2328<t>
     2329   A transparent proxy &MUST-NOT; modify any of the following fields in a
     2330   response:
     2331  <list style="symbols">
     2332    <t>Expires</t>
     2333  </list>
     2334</t>
     2335<t>
     2336   but it &MAY; add any of these fields if not already present. If an
     2337   Expires header is added, it &MUST; be given a field-value identical to
     2338   that of the Date header in that response.
     2339</t>
     2340<t>
     2341   A proxy &MUST-NOT; modify or add any of the following fields in a
     2342   message that contains the no-transform cache-control directive, or in
     2343   any request:
     2344  <list style="symbols">
     2345    <t>Content-Encoding</t>

     2347    <t>Content-Type</t>
     2348  </list>
     2349</t>
     2350<t>
     2351   A non-transparent proxy &MAY; modify or add these fields to a message
     2352   that does not include no-transform, but if it does so, it &MUST; add a
     2353   Warning 214 (Transformation applied) if one does not already appear
     2354   in the message (see &header-warning;).
