Name
forwarded_for
Synopsis
Squid appends an item to the X-Forwarded-For header in requests sent to
origin servers and neighbors. When this directive is enabled, Squid
places the client’s IP address there. When it is disabled, Squid
prints the word unknown instead.
Thus, disabling forwarded_for increases your
user’s privacy.
