Leverage/configure LB with Proxy-Protocol Support

[iamalnewkirk]

I'm looking for a way to use Kalm to deploy and manage pods but where the HTTP-based container applications will have access to X-Forwarded-For, X-Originating-IP, X-Remote-IP, and/or X-Remote-Addr.

Do you mean you want to access these header values(or equivalent) in your pod? Will add some docs about this. New docs will be released soon.

For clarity, I have an application running in a pod that needs to access the client's IP address. The pod is managed by Kalm and accessed through a route with HTTPS-only access. In order for the load balancer to add the client's IP address information to the HTTPS request, the load balancer must be configured to proxy TCP connections and to support proxy protocol. Additionally, Istio must be configured to handle TCP connections with proxy protocol support enabled.
