getRemoteAddr

protected String getRemoteAddr(RequestCycle requestCycle)

When using ProxyPass, requestCycle().getHttpServletRequest(). getRemoteAddr() returns the IP of the machine forwarding the request. In order to maintain the clients ip address, the server places it in the X-Forwarded-For Header. Proxies may also mask the original client IP with tokens like "hidden" or "unknown". If so, the last proxy ip address is returned.

Parameters:

requestCycle - the request cycle

Returns:

remoteAddr IP address of the client, using the X-Forwarded-For header and defaulting to: getHttpServletRequest().getRemoteAddr()
