No. The default configuration as far as i know is that traffic is "relayed" too and from your Loadbalancer.
Https requires this to maintain the chain. Also... it's not standard procedure for a web server to reply to x-forwarded-for addressing. So in short, no it's not. Now that's not to say there may be a work around. But that would mean loosing a boat load of benefits. The foremost of which is perimeter security of your back end systems. Don't quote me on any of this "i'm a beginner myself". Maybe someone else will confirm / correct me. But im 99% sure in not speaking total trash! :D Regards, Robert Baxter Network Manager 01462 432009 ________________________________________ From: Tiago Soares - Netmaker [[email protected]] Sent: 26 June 2013 19:35 To: [email protected] Subject: [Zenloadbalancer-support] X-Forwarded-For - Direct route Hi, Enabling "X-Forwarded-For" header will my backend web servers respond directly to client, instead of send to load balance and then to client?
