IP override for server-side connections

What

By default, all ad requests to the Adhese adserver will make use of the IP of the device that sends the request for all IP related logic such as geo location targeting.

This behaviour makes it impossible to set up user based location targeting in server to server setups as the adserver would use the server's IP and not the one of the end user.

To solve this, Adhese provides functionality that overrides the server's IP with the user's IP.

How

The user's IP can be added to the request via the X-Forwarded-For header. This header will be picked up by the adserver and override the standard IP address from where the request is send.
