407 Proxy Authentication Required - HTTP | MDN

MDN wants to learn about developers like you: https://qsurvey.mozilla.com/s3/MDN-dev-survey

Why does MDN look different?

MDN is changing to focus just on documenting web technologies. All the same great content is still here; we’re just changing some visual elements and navigation, to help you more quickly find the web technology docs you’re looking for.
But don’t worry, MDN and Mozilla are still together! In fact, we're updating MDN’s look to reflect Mozilla's new logo and colors.
Read more about the redesign in our blog post. Thanks for using MDN!
The HTTP 407 Proxy Authentication Required client error status response code indicates that the request has not been applied because it lacks valid authentication credentials for a proxy server that is between the browser and the server that can access the requested resource.
This status is sent with a Proxy-Authenticate header that contains information on how to authorize correctly.
