It is a List [I-D.ietf-httpbis-header-structure]: It is a List [I-D.ietf-httpbis-header-structure], Section 3.1:
Proxy-Status = sf-list Proxy-Status = sf-list
Each member of the list represents an intermediary that has handled Each member of the list represents an intermediary that has handled
the response. The first member of the list represents the the response. The first member of the list represents the
intermediary closest to the origin server, and the last member of the intermediary closest to the origin server, and the last member of the

Proxy-Status MAY be sent in HTTP trailers, but - as with all trailers
- it might be silently discarded along the path to the user agent, so
this SHOULD NOT be done unless it is not possible to send it in
headers. For example, if an intermediary is streaming a response and
the upstream connection suddenly terminates, Proxy-Status can be
appended to the trailers of the outgoing message (since the headers
have already been sent).
Note that there are various security considerations for Proxy-Status MAY be sent in HTTP trailers. For example, if an

suddenly terminates, Proxy-Status can only be appended to the
trailers of the outgoing message, since the headers have already been
sent. As with all trailers, it might be silently discarded along the
path to the user agent, so this SHOULD NOT be done unless it is not
possible to send it in headers, and an intermediary MUST NOT send
Proxy-Status as a trailer field unless it has also sent a
corresponding Proxy-Status header field in the same message, so that
the trailer value's ordering relative to other intermediaries is
preserved.
Origin servers MUST NOT generate the Proxy-Status field. Origin servers MUST NOT generate the Proxy-Status field.

This section lists parameters that can be used on the members of This section lists parameters that can be used on the members of the
Proxy-Status. Proxy-Status field. Unrecognised parameters SHOULD be ignored.
2.1.1. next-hop
The "next-hop" parameter's value is a sf-string or sf-token that
identifies the intermediary or origin server selected (and used, if
contacted) for this response. Its contents might be a hostname, IP
address, or alias.
For example:
Proxy-Status: cdn.example.org; next-hop=backend.example.org
2.1.2. next-protocol
The "next-protocol" parameter's value indicates the ALPN protocol
identifier [RFC7301] used by the intermediary to connect to the next
hop. This is only applicable when that connection was actually
established.
The value MUST be either a sf-token or sf-binary. If the protocol
identifier is able to be expressed as a sf-token using UTF-8
encoding, that form MUST be used.
For example:
Proxy-Status: "proxy.example.org"; next-protocol=h2 2.1.1. error
2.1.3. error The "error" parameter's value is an sf-token that is a Proxy Error
Type. When present, it indicates that the proxy encountered an issue
when obtaining a response.
The "error" parameter's value is a sf-token that is a Proxy Error Unless a Proxy Error Type specifies otherwise, the presences of error

example, a proxy might attempt to correct an error, or part of a
response might be forwarded before the error is encountered.
Section 2.3 lists the Proxy Error Types defined in this document; new Section 2.4 lists the Proxy Error Types defined in this document; new
ones can be defined using the procedure outlined in Section 2.4. ones can be defined using the procedure outlined in Section 2.5.
For example: For example:
HTTP/1.1 504 Gateway Timeout HTTP/1.1 504 Gateway Timeout
Proxy-Status: SomeCDN; error=connection_timeout Proxy-Status: SomeCDN; error=connection_timeout
indicates that this 504 response was generated by SomeCDN, due to a indicates that this 504 response was generated by SomeCDN, due to a

When sending the error parameter, the most specific Proxy Error Type When sending the error parameter, the most specific Proxy Error Type
SHOULD be sent, provided that it accurately represents the error SHOULD be sent, provided that it accurately represents the error
condition. If an appropriate Proxy Error Type is not defined, there condition. If an appropriate Proxy Error Type is not defined, there
are a number of generic error types (e.g., proxy_internal_error, are a number of generic error types (e.g., proxy_internal_error,
http_protocol_error) that can be used. If they are not suitable, http_protocol_error) that can be used. If they are not suitable,
consider registering a new Proxy Error Type (see Section 2.4). consider registering a new Proxy Error Type (see Section 2.5).
Each Proxy Error Type has a Recommended HTTP Status Code. When Each Proxy Error Type has a Recommended HTTP Status Code. When
generating a HTTP response containing "error", its HTTP status code generating a HTTP response containing "error", its HTTP status code
SHOULD be set to the Recommended HTTP Status Code. However, there SHOULD be set to the Recommended HTTP Status Code. However, there
may be circumstances (e.g., for backwards compatibility with previous may be circumstances (e.g., for backwards compatibility with previous
behaviours) when another status code might be used. behaviours, a status code has already been sent) when another status
code might be used.
2.1.4. details Proxy Error Types can also define any number of extra parameters for
use with that type. Their use, like all parameters, is optional. As
a result, if an extra parameter is used with a Proxy Error Type for
which it is not defined, it will be ignored.
The "details" parameter's value is a sf-string containing additional 2.1.2. next-hop
The "next-hop" parameter's value is an sf-string or sf-token that
identifies the intermediary or origin server selected (and used, if
contacted) for this response. It might be a hostname, IP address, or
alias.
For example:
Proxy-Status: cdn.example.org; next-hop=backend.example.org
2.1.3. next-protocol
The "next-protocol" parameter's value indicates the ALPN protocol
identifier [RFC7301] used by the intermediary to connect to the next
hop. This is only applicable when that connection was actually
established.
The value MUST be either an sf-token or sf-binary. If the protocol
identifier is able to be expressed as an sf-token using UTF-8
encoding, that form MUST be used.
For example:
Proxy-Status: "proxy.example.org"; next-protocol=h2
2.2. received-status
The "received-status" parameter's value indicates the HTTP status
code that the intermediary received from the next hop server.
The value MUST be an sf-integer.
For example:
Proxy-Status: ExampleProxy; received-status=200
2.2.1. details
The "details" parameter's value is an sf-string containing additional
information not captured anywhere else. This can include information not captured anywhere else. This can include
implementation-specific or deployment-specific information. implementation-specific or deployment-specific information.
For example: For example:
Proxy-Status: ExampleProxy; error="http_protocol_error"; Proxy-Status: ExampleProxy; error="http_protocol_error";
details="Malformed response header - space before colon" details="Malformed response header - space before colon"

generate a Proxy-Status field in any response, and can conditionally generate a Proxy-Status field in any response, and can conditionally
