How is HttpContext TraceIdentifier (aka Correlation-Id) generated?
I request a page through controller which gives me the following TraceId:
0HLEACIU86PT6:0000000D
The page fires an ajax call which has the following TraceId:
0HLEACIU86PT7:00000005
As you can see, they are very similar. Is it based on time?
Why didn't I get the same TraceIdentifier?
How can I ensure the same TraceIdentifier?

Kestrel generates the request ID as {ConnectionId}:{Request number}. The connection id is the base32 encoded version of a long using the alphabet 1-9, and A - V. The request count is the number of requests over that connection. The nth request over a specific connection is {ConnectionId}:{n}
