[Dxspider-support] Bad IP

[Dirk Koopman]

Nope.

The node knows the incoming IP address of all connections. But if the 
gateway is using reverse NAT then this sort of thing could occur.

These variables in main:: may help or be the cause of the issue.

our @localhost_names = qw(127.0.0.1 ::1); # all ip addresses that will 
need to be aliased below (ipv4 or ipv6)

our $localhost_alias_ipv4;        # these are the IPV4 & 6 aliases for 
localhost connected clients
our $localhost_alias_ipv6;        # for things (PC92, PC61 etc) that 
expose IP addresses. These *may*
                                   # be set by Msg.pm stuff if they are 
left undefined but, if you need
                                   # certainty then set/var them in the 
startup file.

There is code which could use the way HA communicates that might help. 
Kin knows more about this than I do.
