Hi Santhoshkumar,

 

you may change the code to not insert the X-Forwarded-For header for a specific HTTP::host value (e.g. name2.apps.abc.com) and then insert the header on every other request...

 

when HTTP_REQUEST {
    if { [string tolower [HTTP::host]] eq "name2.apps.abc.com" } then {
         Do nothing. Site doesn't require X-Forwarded-For header to be present...
    } else { 
         Site requires X-Forwarded-For header. Adding the X-Forwarded-For header to request... 
        HTTP::header insert "X-Forwarded-For" [getfield [IP::client_addr] "%" 1]
    }
}

Cheers, Kai
