…loud server: volt-adc and x-volterra-location are emitted by F5 Distributed Cloud Services (formerly Volterra, acquired by F5 in 2021), not by Akamai. Akamai Connected Cloud therefore produced false positives on every F5 XC load balancer. - Akamai Connected Cloud: drop the Volterra headers - F5 Distributed Cloud Services: add server ^volt-(?:adc|cdn)$ (volt-adc is the HTTP load balancer default, volt-cdn the F5 XC CDN), keep x-volterra-location, imply Envoy (the XC data plane is Envoy-based) Checked live: www.f5.com, www.volterra.io and console.ves.volterra.io return server: volt-adc, x-volterra-location and x-envoy-upstream-service-time; www.akamai.com, www.linode.com and cloud.linode.com return none of them.

Summary
Akamai Connected Cloudwas detected byserver: ^volt-adc$andx-volterra-location. Those headers belong to F5 Distributed Cloud Services (formerly Volterra, which F5 acquired in 2021), so every site behind an F5 XC load balancer was misreported as Akamai.Akamai Connected Cloud
F5 Distributed Cloud Services
server: ^volt-(?:adc|cdn)$volt-adcis the default for the HTTP load balancer (F5 docs).volt-cdnis the value for F5 XC CDN (F5 community).x-volterra-location(lowercased).implies: ["Envoy"], since the XC data plane is Envoy-based and responses also carryx-envoy-upstream-service-time.Validation
