PeopleSoft Weblogic external Client IP Address logging

If you are using PeopleSoft Weblogic Servers and enabled extended logging and added the following fields C-IP and C-DNS and only see your load balancer or reverse proxy server IP address instead of actual client IP, Please do the following changes for PIA to see the real client – ip. Not the WebLogic Plug-in Enabled is required even if you do not use WebLogic plugin.

• Configure X-Forwarded-For HTTP header on your fron end networking applicance for e.g. F5 BIGIP.
• Login to weblogic console and perform the following,
  Step 1 : Lock & Edit
  Step 2. Environment -> Servers -> PIA -> Configuration -> General
             Advanced
             Select WebLogic Plug-in Enabled. : Y

Step 3 : Environment -> Servers -> PIA -> Protocols  -> HTTP
            Remote Address Override: X-Forwarded-For

Step 4: Activate Changes and Restart the PIA (WebLogic Server).

After this you will see the real client ip address. This still does not show correct C-DNS as this is not correctly resolved by GetRemoteHost call.

Also this does not fix PSACCESSLOG client IP address field which still captures Front end server IP address.
