Hi Len,
you need to change the LogFormat on the target servers behind the LB.
If you are using apache2 do the this:
1. open your apache2 conf file
2. add "LogFormat "%{X-Forwarded-For}i %l %u %t \"%r\" %>s %O" common_lb" to
the LogFormat section
3. open your vhost file and swap "common" to "common_lb" in your CustomLog line.
4. Restart apache2
Now you can see the client IP in the log.
This will only work with http and not with https traffic because LB cannot open
https traffic.
Mit freundlichen Grüßen / With kind regards,
Swen

Betreff: Persisting Source IP on Load Balancers
Hi Guys,
Does anyone know if it is possible to preserve the source IP that is coming in
to servers behind the virtual router load balancer?
In my web servers logs, every connection is from the virtual router.
Thanks
Len
