HTTP 203 Non-Authoritative Information vs 431 Request Header Fields Too Large
HTTP 203 (Non-Authoritative Information) is a 2xx Success response, while 431 (Request Header Fields Too Large) is a 4xx Client Error response. 203 indicates that the response payload has been modified by a transforming proxy from the origin server's 200 response.
