Plet,
Basically you have to go in to the HTTP headers and extract it from
there. Here is the code we use...
<!--- Make sure that we know the users real ip address --->
<cftry>
<cfif StructKeyExists(GetHttpRequestData().headers, "X-Forwarded-For")>
<cfset request.remote_addr =
GetHttpRequestData().headers["X-Forwarded-For"]>
<cfelse>
<cfset request.remote_addr = CGI.REMOTE_ADDR>
</cfif>
<cfcatch type="any"></cfcatch>
</cftry>
Thought we use Pound for our Load Balancer 90% of them use
X-Forwarded-For so I am sure this will work for you on the F5 LB.
