## Change
The global and classic external Application Load Balancers implemented on Google Front-Ends (GFEs) now support HTTP/1.0 explicitly as a protocol during ALPN (Application-Layer Protocol Negotiation) negotiation.
Previously, when the GFEs didn't support HTTP/1.0 explicitly, the GFE would return an `SSL_TLSEXT_ERR_NOACK` response, disable ALPN, and fall back to using HTTP/1 as the default application protocol. After this change, GFEs will instead return `HTTP/1.0`, which provides clients with positive confirmation that their advertised `HTTP/1.0` was accepted.
You are not expected to make any changes with this update. If a TLS handshake with HTTP/1.0 is unsuccessful, please contact [support](https://cloud.google.com/load-balancing/docs/getting-support).
