Yes, we may re-phrase it like that, if we'd like to fix it in apache source (and not documentation) :) Currently ap_get_remote_host in server/core.c doesn't return useragent_ip, and instead of it we get conn->client_ip.

isn't the question rather "What should ap_get_remote_host()
return?"?

Hello,

Would it be possible to change the documentation of mod_remoteip for 2.4 
(http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.4/mod/mod_remoteip.html), and get "is reported by 
mod_status" removed from the page? As it leds Apache customers to believe that it 
will report a real (useragent) IP instead of a proxy one in server-status page. 
useragent_ip is not even available in scoreboard, which is used by mod_status, so it's 
not available for mod_status.

This has been already discussed here: 
https://issues.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=55886

Thank you!
