HTTP 101 Switching Protocols vs 203 Non-Authoritative Information
HTTP 101 (Switching Protocols) is a 1xx Informational response, while 203 (Non-Authoritative Information) is a 2xx Success response. 101 indicates that the server understands the Upgrade header field request and indicates which protocol it is switching to.
