Ryan , Jitesh and Ketan ,
 
Could I get your feedback on the issue above. 

Thanks,

Morgan 

Good afternoon Gentlemen,

My apologies for the delayed response. Unfortunately this is outside my expertise, but based on some research it helps to confirm the originating IP address. Jitesh and Ketan do you have any experience with this? I'm unsure as to whether this would be added at the application level, or server level?

Thanks!

Ryan

Thanks Ryan .

Ketan and Jitesh , let us know if there's anything we can do for the existing ISLG application (and the new ISLG and ILG applications) to accommodate this. We don't want this to interfere with users' ability to access the applications.

Hi Ketan and Jitesh ,

The client above has requested that we provide them with more information on the above. Could you please provide your assessment as soon as possible.

Thanks,

Morgan 

Hi Morgan ,

Yes, X-Forwarded-For (XFF) headers used for identifying the originating IP address of a client connecting to a web server through an HTTP proxy. To see the original IP address of the client, the X-Forwarded-For request header is used and We have implemented this approach in ISLG Rebuild and ILG as current implemented technology structure of ISLG and ILG provide benefit to do this features. We are looking into ISLG old application and update you once done.


Thanks,
Jitesh

Ok. Thanks Jitesh . Yes, please let me know how this will effect the old ISLG application as well. Also, could you explain more on a more practical level what affect of the XFF headers will have on the applications. Are you saying this has the potential to interfere with giving users IP authenticated access to the application?  I need to understand what potential affect (if any) this will have on the users' experience, or any other impacts (e.g., tracking usage on admin site).

Thanks,

Morgan

Hi Jitesh ​,

I'm following up on my comment above.

Thanks,

Morgan

Hi Morgan ,

It will not effect ISLG existing application as XFF headers will useful to getting original IP address of user if user going to access other network and server.
We will do XFF header implementation in old application and update you.

There is no impact to user but yes admin can take original IP address of user who accessing application whether user will use his or other network.


Thanks,
Jitesh

Great. Thanks Jitesh . We'll follow-up with the client and let them know.

Hi Jitesh , 

I've notified the client that we're making the necessary XFF header implementation to the current ISLG application. Please let me know when those updates and complete.

Thanks,

Morgan 

Hi Jitesh ,

Could you please provide an update on implementing XFF headers into the current application.

Thanks,

Morgan
