HTTP/3 and QUIC: The Connection ID

HTTP/3 and QUIC: The Connection ID(pubnub.com)

HTTP/3 maintains a unique connection ID through the QUIC protocol. The connection ID is not dependent the device's IP address. This allows the connectivity to remain persistent even as users switch between different networks such as 5G and Wi-Fi. In a way you can consider this as a "connectionless" session. The session isn't tied between two IP addresses.
