<h3>Summary</h3>
<p><code class="module"><a href="../mod/mod_proxy_protocol.html">mod_proxy_protocol</a></code> implements the server side of
HAProxy's
<a href="http://blog.haproxy.com/haproxy/proxy-protocol/">Proxy Protocol</a>.</p>
<p>The module overrides the client IP address for the connection
with the information supplied by the upstream proxy in the proxy
protocol (connection) header.</p>
<p>This overridden useragent IP address is then used for the
<code class="module"><a href="../mod/mod_authz_host.html">mod_authz_host</a></code>
<code class="directive"><a href="../mod/mod_authz_core.html#require">Require ip</a></code>
feature, is reported by <code class="module"><a href="../mod/mod_status.html">mod_status</a></code>, and is recorded by
<code class="module"><a href="../mod/mod_log_config.html">mod_log_config</a></code> <code>%a</code> and <code class="module"><a href="../mod/core.html">core</a></code>
<code>%a</code> format strings. The underlying client IP of the connection
is available in the <code>%{c}a</code> format string.</p>
<div class="warning">It is critical to only enable this behavior from
intermediate proxies which are trusted by this server, since it is trivial
for the remote client to impersonate another client. Currently this must
be done by external means (such as a firewall) as this module does not
(yet) implement access controls.</div>

<p>The <code class="directive">ProxyProtocolFilter</code> enables or disables the
reading and handling of the proxy protocol connection header. If enabled
the upstream client <em>must</em> send the header every time it opens a
connection or the connection will get aborted.</p>
<p>While this directive may be specified in any virtual host, it is
important to understand that because the proxy protocol is connection
based and protocol agnostic, the enabling and disabling is actually based
on ip-address and port. This means that if you have multiple name-based
virtual hosts for the same host and port, and you enable it any one of
them, then it is enabled for all them (with that host and port). It also
means that if you attempt to enable the proxy protocol in one and disable
in the other, that won't work; in such a case the last one wins and a
notice will be logged indicating which setting was being overridden.</p>
