RealIP#
The module is used to change the client address and port to the ones sent in the PROXY protocol header. The PROXY protocol must be previously enabled by setting the proxy_protocol parameter in the listen directive.
When building from the source code,
this module isn't built by default;
it should be enabled with the
‑‑with‑stream_realip_module
build option.
In packages and images from our repos, the module is included in the build.
