$r->connection->remote_ip with proxy and non proxy env
|
|
Folks, I'm guessing this has been answered but I couldn't find it. We need to do some IP checking and need to support it on both a load balanced environment and in a dedicated machine setup. In the load balanced situation $r->connection->remote_ip returns 1 - Is that correct and consistent so I can use it to switch between how I get the IP address? In other words should I be doing something like if ($r->connection->remote_ip == 1) my $ip = $r->headers_in->{'X-Forwarded-For'} } else { my $ip = $r->connection->remote_ip; } Or is there a better way? TIA! -Chris
