HTTP is a TCP based protocol, so, the server has to know and use the IP of the actual client (ATS or a user-agent) talking to it -- true IP spoofing isn't feasible for ATS or any other proxy. However, by default, ATS will place your client's IP in the conventional X-Forwarded-For: header, and some servers will use that header's value.
