#### websocket::close_code

Close status codes.

##### Synopsis

Defined in header `<boost/beast/websocket/rfc6455.hpp>`

    enum close_code

##### Values

Name | Description
--- | ---
`normal` | Normal closure; the connection successfully completed whatever purpose for which it was created.
`going_away` | The endpoint is going away, either because of a server failure or because the browser is navigating away from the page that opened the connection.
`protocol_error` | The endpoint is terminating the connection due to a protocol error.
`unknown_data` | The connection is being terminated because the endpoint received data of a type it cannot accept (for example, a text-only endpoint received binary data).
`bad_payload` | The endpoint is terminating the connection because a message was received that contained inconsistent data (e.g., non-UTF-8 data within a text message).
`policy_error` | The endpoint is terminating the connection because it received a message that violates its policy. This is a generic status code, used when codes 1003 and 1009 are not suitable.
`too_big` | The endpoint is terminating the connection because a data frame was received that is too large.
`needs_extension` | The client is terminating the connection because it expected the server to negotiate one or more extension, but the server didn't.
`internal_error` | The server is terminating the connection because it encountered an unexpected condition that prevented it from fulfilling the request.
`service_restart` | The server is terminating the connection because it is restarting.
`try_again_later` | The server is terminating the connection due to a temporary condition, e.g. it is overloaded and is casting off some of its clients.
`none` | Used internally to mean "no error". This code is reserved and may not be sent.
`reserved1` | Reserved for future use by the WebSocket standard. This code is reserved and may not be sent.
`no_status` | No status code was provided even though one was expected. This code is reserved and may not be sent.
`abnormal` | Connection was closed without receiving a close frame. This code is reserved and may not be sent.
`reserved2` | Reserved for future use by the WebSocket standard. This code is reserved and may not be sent.
`reserved3` | Reserved for future use by the WebSocket standard. This code is reserved and may not be sent.
