Thanks for everyone's replies. So, since all major browsers (Firefox, Chrome, Edge, Safari, and so on) only support HTTP/2 over TLS, it would appear we need to use SSL profiles for both, the client side and server side connections, unless we use h2c???

you can use h2c on server side regardless of how the client is because vserver is proxy.

however, i prefer to keep server side using simple http1.1 with oneconnect.
simultaneous requests of http2 or http3 is heavier to be handled in webserver than 1 by 1 of http1.1,
also no need to use f5 mrf profile.

on client side, use newer reliable udp based http3 instead of http2.
it will reduce load in client and network due to udp based.
