 * Hello,
 * As I’m using a reverse-proxy, only its IP is blocked. When an attack begins, 
   WordPress login is blocked for all users.
 * Log:
 * HTTP_X_FORWARDED_FOR = IP0
   HTTP_X_REAL_IP = IP0REMOTE_ADDR = IP1
 * How could I setup Limit Login Attempts Reloaded in order it can see and block
   real IPs?
 * The page I need help with: _[[log in](https://login.wordpress.org/?redirect_to=https%3A%2F%2Fwordpress.org%2Fsupport%2Ftopic%2Freverse-proxy-7%2F%3Foutput_format%3Dmd&locale=en_US)
   to see the link]_

 * Try adding HTTP_X_REAL_IP into the Trusted Origins field so WP gets the correct
   IP.

 * Thank you. I ‘ve got now: HTTP_X_REAL_IP, REMOTE_ADDR
 * I will look if it’s OK in a few days.
