Configure accept-proxy

[MarcoPereira7]

Is there any way of configuring "accept-proxy" in a frontend block using HAProxy ingress controller?

What I want to do is preserve the real client IP when using this proxy. I am trying some configurations but without success. I step into this documentation:

https://www.haproxy.com/documentation/aloha/latest/load-balancing/client-ip-preservation/enable-proxy-protocol/

I don't know if it also not going to work, but i want to give it a try if it is possible via the ingress controller.

Hi @MarcoPereira7 , Unfortunately, it's not configurable at this time. I'll mark your question as a enhancement so that we can discuss it in our meeting for a possible future feature. Thanks.

Hey @ivanmatmati , that's unfortunate, thank you for the answer!

I'm also interested in this feature, as our usecase uses a cloud-provided loadbalancer that internally uses haproxy
