Nginx real_ip_recursive

[ianjoneill]

Thanks for your reply.

If I uncomment that line, the X-Forwarded-For header contains all of the IP
addresses, as shown below:

$ sudo /usr/sbin/tcpdump -i lo -A -s 0 'tcp port 8080 and (
((ip[2:2] - ((ip[0]&0xf)<<2)) - ((tcp[12]&0xf0)>>2)) != 0)'
tcpdump: verbose output suppressed, use -v or -vv for full protocol decode
listening on lo, link-type EN10MB (Ethernet), capture size 65535 bytes

.'.w.'.vHEAD / HTTP/1.0
Host: localhost
X-Real-IP: 10.0.2.2
X-Forwarded-For: 1.1.1.1, 2.2.2.2, 10.0.2.2

Accept: */*

i.e. I am getting the spoofed addresses and the real one. As I understood
it, I should only get the real ip, i.e. 10.0.2.2.
