Function Documentation

parseForwardedAddress()

QHostAddress parseForwardedAddress

(

const QByteArray &

headerValue

)

Parses the real client address out of a forwarded header value (X-Real-IP, X-Forwarded-For).

A comma-separated list resolves to its rightmost usable entry. That entry was appended by the proxy closest to the server and is the only one a direct client cannot choose, since the earlier entries are passed through verbatim from whatever the client sent.

Returns

the parsed address, or a null QHostAddress when the value holds none.
