Class IPAddressPlugin

java.lang.Object

org.owasp.security.logging.mdc.plugins.IPAddressPlugin

All Implemented Interfaces:

IPlugin

public class IPAddressPlugin
extends Object
implements IPlugin

This plugin adds the request's remote IP address to the MDC in the most basic way possible: By calling request.getRemoteAddr(). The value can be accessed in a PatternLayout by using the specifier: %X{ipAddress} For environments that determine the request IP address by using the value of a header appended by a load balancer (e.g. X-Forwarded-For), see ForwardedIPAddressPlugin.
