Hello,

 

I tried your sugestion of inserting a custom header to replace the client IP but I am still getting the SNAT IP in the ISS logs. Do you have this functionalty working? I am not keen to use the x-forward header as this would require an ISAPI filter to be installed on the IIS server which (unfortunately) is not an option.

 

 

How does the ISS log interpret the ORIG_CLIENT_IP & change it into the W3C format c-ip (client IP)? Should the header be c-ip:[IP::client_addr]?
