Hi there. I deployed my first ever Kong setup today in a 1-click deployment on Google Cloud (running on Debian 11.6). Its sole purpose is to proxy requests coming from my Bubble.io servers in the U.S to a service in Australia that only accepts traffic from other Australian-based hosts.
I’m new to the O/S but it was pretty easy to configure basic services and routes, and the proxy function is working perfectly. I was pretty impressed how easy it was.
The only issue is that I need to pass the proxy server IP address as the originating address, and not the IP address of the host where the API call came from, as the Australian service I’m using rejects it. As my Kong server has an Australian IP address, I wrongly assumed that this would work out of the box.
What do I need to change in order to make this happen? I suspect it’s kong.conf but I’m having trouble figuring out exactly what to change.
Can anyone give a newbie some guidance?
