| This means changing these parameters on subsequent requests with the same session ID will have no effect until the session rotates to a new node. | ||

| <Warning> | ||
| **Runtime re-parsing:** Session parameters are re-parsed from the auth string on every request. If you omit a parameter like `sessionmode-norotate` on a subsequent request, the session silently reverts to the default behavior (strict mode). Always use consistent auth strings for all requests within a session. |

There was a problem hiding this comment.
Can we double check this is correct also for sessionerr and sessionttl? Afaik it's not.
Document the new norotate session mode (PROXY-263) across sticky session docs and knowledge base articles. Includes behavior description, curl examples, 502 error semantics, and warning about auth string re-parsing.
- Correct status codes: 502 for tunnel errors, 503 for node unavailable (was incorrectly showing 502 for all cases) - Move sessionmode out of "creation-only" params into new "re-parsed on every request" section, matching actual dispatcher behavior - Document that sessionerr is ignored in norotate mode - Fix KB article status code accuracy
Correct remaining discrepancies between code and docs: TTL expiry creates a new session (not 503), rate-limit exceeded replaces the session, and node-gone is the only case that returns 503. Remove duplicate warnings, redundant bullet points, and the second curl example to keep the docs concise.
