Thread.currentThread().getName() is not returning client IP address JBOSS EAP7.0

Question

We are migrating server from jboss-portal to jboss EAP7.0. When I execute the code Thread.currentThread().getName() in portal result is returning client ip address. Where as if I use the same statement in jboss-eap 7.0 result (default task-20).

i wanted to print the client ip address in log file right now (%t) is works well in jboss-portal. Where as jboss-eap 7.0 results empty.

How do I achieve this? Thanks.

You can use the pattern %h to print the host in the log file. For example (given the default logging configuration):

/subsystem=logging/pattern-formatter=COLOR-PATTERN:write-attribute(name=pattern, value="%K{level}%d{HH:mm:ss,SSS} %-5p [%c] (%t) %h %s%e%n")

Would print a log line like the following on the console:
