Description: add the proxy protocol support on TCP LB in order to share the real client's real IP to origin server.
Use case:
- replace a downstream TCP LB of Cloud Service Provider by a F5 XC CE
Benefit:
- When the origin server seen by F5 XC is an Ingress Controller (IC), IC requires to know the client's real IP using proxy protocol. Example using NGINX here
- When a customer requires to offload TLS on a CE, due to legal reglementation, the reverse-proxy hosted on CE (NGINX POD) requires to know the client's real IP using proxy protocol.
As this feature is now shipped, is there any documentation on how to configure it ?
Any feedback about this feature asked one year ago ?
