Re: [Cppcms-users] getting real ip of client

[Artyom B. <art...@ya...>]

There is request().remote_address() that helps you to deal with.

If your run behind reverse proxy, such proxies usually define headers
like X-Real-IP headers that are set to variables like HTTP_X_REAL_IP.

HTTP Proxies usually handle this correctly preventing hijacking 
such headers.

If you use internal HTTP web server take a look on 


http://cppcms.com/wikipp/en/page/cppcms_1x_config#http.proxy.remote_addr_headers

That allow request().remote_address() behave as expected
