Another option if proxy protocol isn't available for the server software is to use "source 0.0.0.0 usesrc clientip". You need to combine that with the correct firewall divert rules to make it work... This will make haproxy seem to connect from the original clientip.

You can use the "proxy protocol" for this. Haproxy doesn't allow manipulation of the TCP stream itself as it could be any number of protocols which haproxy doesn't support. However the proxy protocol sends a line at the very beginning of the stream containing the client source IP, port, destination, & destination port, then it starts sending the data. As such, whatever you're sending to has to be capable of handling the proxy protocol header (and be configured to do so).

See http://cbonte.github.io/haproxy-dconv/configuration-1.5.html#5.2-send-proxy and http://haproxy.1wt.eu/download/1.5/doc/proxy-protocol.txt

*Subject: *Real client IP address question

Hi,

There is a setting('forward for' option)in haproxy allowing to forward the traffic with the real client IP address to the end server. This setting works only for HTTP traffic. Is there a way to make a similar setting for TCP?

I run haproxy on Linux OS.

Best regards,

Evgeny Semenov
