Kihwal Lee commented on HADOOP-10498:
-------------------------------------
According to the IETF draft,
http://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-ietf-appsawg-http-forwarded-10 , the header
format may change to include information about multiple proxies involved in
forwarding. Even if this becomes the standard, proxy servers will most likely
still put the defacto "X-Forwarded-For" header for compatibility reasons. For
this reason, I think it is reasonable to assume "X-Forwarded-For" for now. If
the proposal becomes a standard, it will be more than just header name change,
so making it configurable doesn't seem to add much value.
+1 for the patch.
