Complancy with the IETF specifications (RFCs 1945, 2616 and 2396)

Server NGINX
1

Hi

I am currently making a research related to different HTTP server
implementations.

To make my research results complete, I would like to know if Nginx web
server is fully compliant with the following IETF recommendations:

  • HTTP/1.0 specification RFC 1945,
  • HTTP/1.1 specification RFC 2616, and
  • the URI generic syntax specification RFC 2396.

Thanks in advance.

Isn’t the point of “research” that you actually, er, research these
things yourself?

For example, writing a test suite of clients and tests that you can
point at various HTTP servers to discover their RFC/etc compliance
levels?
