I monitored the HTTP headers of the requests that are forwarded to Nginx by the
load balancer using tcpdump, and I can clearly see that the remote IP is added
to the headers as a new header "REMOTE ADDR:", still use $http_x_forwarded_for
it?

Thanks, -M

Use "$http_x_forwarded_for" to log client real ip address.

My nginx is getting requests through a (NetScaler) load balancer, and
$remote_addr is returning the load balancer's IP and not the real user's IP
(which the load balancer sets as REMOTE_ADDR in the header). Any other attribute
I should use to get the real user's IP?
