Pass Cient IP to back end servers

Is there a way in iRules to send the IP address of the client PC to a back end server? My web writer thinks I should be able to send the IP from the HTTP header (refer) field to the back end servers?...

In an iRule: 


when HTTP_REQUEST {
  HTTP::header insert ORIG_CLIENT_IP [IP::remote_addr]
}

In a profile:

profile http myhttp insert xforwarded for enable
