X-Device Header

Message #490 of 915 |

Hi,

I noticed that in every request from Yahoo server it is sent a X-Device
header with a number.
How does Yahoo obtains this number? Is it a standard or just something
implemented by Yahoo?

I'm asking this because, as a content provider I would like to identify
what is the device making the requests. Do you know a way to do this?

Thank you.
