NAME
Perlbal::Plugin::ForwardedFor - Rename the X-Forwarded-For header in
Perlbal

VERSION
Version 0.02

SYNOPSIS
This plugin changes the header Perlbal will use to delcare itself as a
proxy.

Usually Perlbal will - perl RFC - add itself to X-Forwarded-For, but
this plugins allows you to change that to any header you want, so you
could differ Perlbal from other possible proxies the user might have.

In your Perlbal configuration:

LOAD ForwardedFor

CREATE SERVICE http_balancer
SET role = reverse_proxy
SET pool = machines
SET plugins = ForwardedFor
FORWARDED_FOR = X-Perlbal-Forwarded-For

SUBROUTINES/METHODS
load
Register a global hook and check for configuration problems.

register
Register a service hook to run a callback to rewrite the header.

rewrite_header
The function that is called as the callback.

Rewrites the *X-Forwarded-For* to whatever header name you specified in
the configuration file.
