Response header fields

A successful HTTP response does not mean that the command was successful: it indicates only that the Web User Interface server was able to interpret the command and the result status is indicated in the header record.

Each header record contains at least the fields shown in Table 1. There can also be other header fields, as described for individual commands under Data interface command reference. The order in which header fields appear in the header record is undefined.
