In the Variable Reference

There are two variables that are very similar
client.ip and proxy.client.ip
What is the difference between those two and when would the value be different between them?
Solved! Go to Solution.
The variable "proxy.client.ip" is the X-Forwarded-For IP address whereas the "client.ip" gives the actual client IP (this could be the original client IP or a load balancer IP) and it is not dependent on the X-Fowarded-For header.
So if the client app does not take care of the manipulation of X-Forwarded-For header then we can use "proxy.client.ip" and "client.ip" interchangeably. Hope this clarifies your question.
