-------------------------------------
[~jojochuang] Thanks for your review.

could you fix the checkstyle warning
{quote}
Sure, I could do that.

As you said this is for accessing...
{quote}
If we use a proxy server(Knox) to access Namenode log locally, it doesn't print
the warning log. If we access Namenode log directly, then we should attach
"x-forwarded-server", otherwise the warning log is unavoidable. It doesn't have
impact on RM/NM because they don't use
{{AuthenticationWithProxyUserFilter.java}} when they construct the filter
chains.
But I think the warning log is harmless, right? After all, it will ignore
"x-forwarded-server" and fallback to getRemoteAddr if the value is empty.

> Many production environments use firewalls to protect network traffic. In the
> specific case of DataNode UI and other Hadoop server for which their ports
> may fall on the list of firewalled ports the
> org.apache.hadoop.security.AuthenticationWithProxyUserFilter user getRemotAdd
> (HttpServletRequest) which may return the firewall host such as 127.0.0.1.
> This is unfortunately bad since if you are using a proxy in addition to do
> perimeter protection, and you have added your proxy as a super user when
> checking for the proxy IP to authorize user this would fail since
> getRemoteAdd would return the IP of the firewall (127.0.0.1).
> "2017-04-08 07:01:23,029 ERROR security.AuthenticationWithProxyUserFilter
> (AuthenticationWithProxyUserFilter.java:getRemoteUser(94)) - Unable to verify
> proxy user: Unauthorized connection for super-user: knox from IP 127.0.0.1"
> I propese to add a check for x-forwarded-for header since proxys usually
> inject that header before we do a getRemoteAddr
