How do you preserve the mapping between the origin IP address and the connection that the web server receives? For HTTP the easiest solution would be to insert a header with the origin IP that could then be logged, does the HTTP header addition/modification functionality of HAProxy support this? Has this problem been solved for a protocol other than HTTP? In theory you could have a user-space TCP stack that sends data to the back-end server with a source address that is the same as that of the origin.
