PHP 301重定向会使用带宽吗？

Question

I need to redirect streams for a project. I am thinking it will be a cheap way to obfuscate their location and therefore protect them.

Although, I have a question about it.

The streams are on another server but will they also use bandwidth on the server I am going to use this PHP?

 <?php
header("HTTP/1.1 301 Moved Permanently");
header("Location: http://hls.adaptive.examplelevel99.net/folder/channel/vid54231.m3u8");
?>

It would require very little bandwidth however if you must save the bandwidth try redirecting from apache, CPU and bandwidth usage on redirects is minimal especially if you're doing them with Apache directly
