Sergiu Dumitriu commented on XWIKI-1774:
----------------------------------------

The problem is that somewhere the IP of the actual client is replaced by the IP 
of one of the front servers. The real IP is stored in the X-Forwarded-For HTTP 
header, but we can't use it as the SecurityFilter code does not use. I filled a 
bug report to the SecurityFilter project, but I don't expect it to be fixed, as 
that project didn't have a release in almost 3 years.

We can either document this bug+workaround while waiting for a fix in 
SecurityFilter (or use our own patched version), or look for an alternative.
