Discourse get real IP Address behind Fastly #163

Description

@renoirb

It seems that the IP address doesn’t pass through to Discourse, yet.

This is unexpected work item, I thought the information was going through.

Possible causes

  • Discourse expects X-Forwarded-For with only one entry. No need to change Fastly at all, not even to add a header
  • Discourse reads from another header; correct.
  • NGINX at frontend rewrites header; nothing special to do here
  • NGINX inside Discourse container rewrites header; the container’s NGINX server handles it all

TIme estimate

  • Initial: 4h
