[users@httpd] Please suggest a module which can check for X-Forwarded ip address , functionality similar to mod_qos or mod_bw
Hi ,
Does anyone know of a module similar to
mod_qos or mod_bw which can limit bandwidth/no. of connections based on
X-Forwarded for IP address. We have an external site which is behind Akamai
load balancer, so our webserves only see Akamai IP address. As far as the
documentation of mod_qos goes , I don't seem to see it support for
X-Forwarded IP address.
Please suggest.
Thanks in advance
Soumendu

mod_rpaf [1] (Reverse Proxy Add Forward) will update your internal
request object with the address from X-Forwarded-For from trusted
proxies. We use it with akamai for the same purpose, and also behind our
own reverse proxies.
