I'm new to IBM ISAM and webseal.
How do backend applications get the client (user browser end) ip address? I am able to retrieve the ip address from the HTTP request but that's the address of the reverse proxy and not the client.
The traffic goes from: Client > load balancer > reverse proxy > backend app
Use the [header-names] stanza of the reverse proxy config file and add an entry like the following:
client-ip-v4 = YourHeaderName
The value will be passed in the header named "YourHeaderName". You can rename YourHeaderName to whatever you want.
It's documented here: https://www.ibm.com/support/knowledgecenter/SSPREK_9.0.1/com.ibm.isam.doc/wrp_stza_ref/reference/ref_srvr_name.html
