Hi, First, maybe a short introduction of who I am. I work for Opera Software with Opera Mini in the mini server team in Linköping, Sweden. Now, to business. I recently submitted a draft for standardizing a replacement for the X-Forwarded-For header field. Please read the draft and come with feedback. Regards, Andreas Petersson --- A New Internet-Draft is available from the on-line Internet-Drafts directories. Title : Forwarded-For HTTP Extension Author(s) : A. Petersson, M. Nilsson Filename : draft-petersson-forwarded-for-00.txt Pages : 8 Date : 2011-04-05 This document standardizes an HTTP extension header field that allows proxy components to disclose the originating IP number of a request. Given a trusted path of proxying components, each subsequent component will have access to all IP numbers used in the chain of proxied HTTP requests. This document also standardizes ways for a proxy possessor to anonymize the origin of a request.
