Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
I really like selfhosting servers from home so I used TCPShield (primarily to hide my ip), but I have multiple mc servers so I have to forward multiple ports.

Describe the solution you'd like
It would be awesome if you could use TCPShield(or other infrared instance) infront of infrared and use RealIP to passthrough the IP from TCPShield to infrared to the server.

This should already work. Did you test it?

KaktusXY commented

No, because RealIP is currently not working, I tried it and see #71

haveachin commented

But pass thru should work. Do not set "realIp": true in the config since this will override the TCPShield handshake packet modification. Otherwise it should work.

KaktusXY commented

Ok thanks. I'll try it.

KaktusXY commented

Just tried it, it works. Thanks for the help. Maybe add some information about this in to the new docs for v2.0

Is it possible to implement, that infrared is able to "intercept" the RealIP packet and shows the real player ip in the logs for e.g. maybey in the future for some metrics, api, etc..?

Is already planned for 2.0
