Hello Zain,
I have many virtual server and configuring all backend server to extract the IP address from HTTP header would be too difficult. I 'm looking for an alternative to get the Client's true IP or Original IP address without having to configure any thing on the backend server. I would need something to do on F5 itself to get the original IP address.
