This return statement will send you to the <code>vcl_pass</code> subroutine where a backend fetch will be triggered instead of performing a cache lookup.</p> <p>This is something you would typically do when you can determine, based on the request information, that the response is not cacheable.</p> <p>A typical example is using the URL to identify non-cacheable resources.</p>
