HAProxy proxy protocol

Hi,

the connection information logged in RabbitMQ log is still indicating 127.0.0.1: as the client IP instead of the actual/source client IP. A question over here is do I also need to enable proxy protocol on RabbitMQ broker? The current understanding is that should not be required (stand to be corrected) ….

In my understanding yes, you have to configure RabbitMQ to display the address you want in the log: network source address, or proxy protocol source address. (given the setup is correct and the Application A IP address is correctly transported all along).
