I'm sure this has been asked before, but I could not find an answer.I'm using nginx-0.7.66.I have 6 webservers running Apache, tomcat, IIS on it. We are using ip base access for some directories and files on our servers.But when we use nginx as a load balancer, these rules (ip based access on apache,tomcat and IIS) are not working , because of our servers are seeing Nginx's ip address as client ip address.
Does anybody know how I can pass client's ip addresses directly through our servers on Nginx?
here is our sample nginx.conf
#########################
#user nobody;
worker_processes 16;
error_log logs/error.log;
pid logs/nginx.pid;
events {
worker_connections 1024;
}
upstream webserver_a {
ip_hash;
server 192.168.100.4:80;
server 192.168.100.5:80;
}
server {
listen *:80;
server_name our.domain.com;
access_log logs/webserver_a.access.log;
location / {
proxy_set_header X-Real-IP $remote_addr;
# needed for HTTPS
proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-For $proxy_add_x_forwarded_for;
proxy_set_header Host $http_host;
proxy_redirect off;
proxy_max_temp_file_size 0;
proxy_pass http://webserser_a;
