- Sets a client IP in HAProxy PROXY protocol v1 header at the beginning of the
- connection.
- For valid requests, IPv4 addresses must be indicated as a series of exactly
- 4 integers in the range [0..255] inclusive written in decimal representation
- separated by exactly one dot between each other. Heading zeroes are not
- permitted in front of numbers in order to avoid any possible confusion
- with octal numbers. IPv6 addresses must be indicated as series of 4 hexadecimal
- digits (upper or lower case) delimited by colons between each other, with the
- acceptance of one double colon sequence to replace the largest acceptable range
- of consecutive zeroes. The total number of decoded bits must exactly be 128.
- Otherwise, any string can be accepted for the client IP and will be sent.
- It replaces `--haproxy-protocol` if used, it is not necessary to specify both flags.
- This option is primarily useful when sending test requests to
- verify a service is working as intended.
