As Sudhir_Patamsetti mentioned there is this option that I have not used yet but it is interesting if it will work with multiple ip addreesses in the HTTP header. If the rule has the option to select something like "contains" in the value of a specific HTTP header then it shouldn't be an issue. If you see issues you may need to modify your proxy devices to also add another header that has just one ip address and use that in the Distributed Cloud XC rules.
