When using Nginx Proxy Manager, you may notice that it does not return the REMOTE_ADDR header with the real client IP, but instead returns the IP of Nginx Proxy Manager.

To solve this issue, you need to follow these steps:

  1. Open Nginx Proxy Manager and access the proxy you want to fix, then click on Advanced

Now, paste this code inside Custom Nginx Configuration

proxy_set_header        X-Real-IP       $remote_addr;
proxy_set_header        X-Forwarded-For $proxy_add_x_forwarded_for;

After adding this code, you will receive a header with the client’s IP, which will now be HTTP_X_REAL_IP instead of REMOTE_ADDR.

Continuing with the translation:

And now you will receive a header with the client's IP, which will now be HTTP_X_REAL_IP instead of REMOTE_ADDR.
