If the controller is behind a proxy then the socket.remoteAddress will
be that of the proxy instead of the end client that connected. In this
case the X-Forwarded-For header will contain the address of the end
client, but this should only be relied upon if the party connecting is a
trusted proxy, otherwise a malicious user could spoof the IP address
that is logged by providing a forged X-Forwarded-For header.
Implement a trusted proxy list consisting of a configured list of IP
addresses and/or CIDR blocks and use the last address[1] in the
X-Forwarded-For header if the remoteAddress address of the connecting
party is in the trusted proxy list.
