IP not recognized

Symptom

• When accessing a resource through EZproxy, the IP is not recognized

Applies to

• EZproxy with Option X-Forwarded-For in config.txt

Resolution

Make sure that every Option X-Forwarded-For in the configuration is closed by an Option NoX-Forwarded-For

If this is not done correctly, the IP of the end-user-browser gets transmitted to the resource provider. They may use it to check for a subscription, which it may not have.

Additional information

See the description of Option X-Forwarded-For
