When using Alibaba Cloud CDN, a visitor's request will first be routed to a CDN edge node, and in the event of a cache miss at this edge node, the node will fetch data from the origin site (back-to-source request). Even with this redirection, it is possible for the origin site to see the visitor's real IP address. Which of the following statements about obtaining the visitor's real IP address are correct? (Number of correct answers: 2)
A visitor's real IP address can only be obtained by modifying the site or web application.
Suggested Answer: B, C

A seems a bit misleading, I thought there were other ways to get the real IP.

C is spot on, that extension is a lifesaver for tracking IPs!

Wait, can you really get the real IP without modifying the site? Sounds off.

I think D is also right, pretty sure you can see IPs in the logs.

B is correct, that's how it works!

I feel like modifying the site is a common requirement, but I can't remember if it's the only way to get the real IP.

I'm a bit confused about the IIS extension. I feel like I read about it, but I can't recall if it's necessary for logging real IPs.

I think option D sounds familiar; I practiced a question about enabling features in the Alibaba Cloud CDN console.

I remember something about the 'X-Forwarded-For' header being important for tracking real IPs, but I'm not sure if it's the only way.

This looks straightforward. The correct answers are B and D - the visitor's real IP can be found in the logs, either through the 'X-Forwarded-For' header or by enabling the 'record visitor's real IP' function in the CDN console.

I'm a bit confused about the difference between modifying the site and using the CDN console. I'll need to review the details on those options.

Okay, I think I've got a good handle on this. The key is understanding how the 'X-Forwarded-For' header works and where to find the visitor's real IP in the logs.

Hmm, this seems like a tricky one. I'll need to carefully read through the options and think about how Alibaba Cloud CDN handles visitor IP addresses.

I hope the correct answer isn't hidden behind a paywall or something. Alibaba Cloud sure loves their premium features!

I'm going with B and D. Seems like the most straightforward way to get the visitor's real IP address when using Alibaba Cloud CDN.

Activating the 'record visitor's real IP' function in the Alibaba Cloud CDN console seems like the easiest way to view visitor's IP addresses.

Yes, the visitor's real IP address is indeed stored in the 'X-Forwarded-For' HTTP header.

I'm not sure about C, but I think activating the 'record visitor's real IP' function in Alibaba Cloud CDN console is a good way to obtain the IP address.

I agree with Chan, because the real IP address is usually stored in the 'X-Forwarded-For' header.

Haha, I bet the developer who wrote option A has never heard of 'X-Forwarded-For' before. Good luck trying to get the real IP without that!

C) In Windows, if IIS is used, after installing the \'F5XForwardedFor\' extension module, the visitor's real IP address can be seen via IIS logs.
TR

B) visitor's real IP address is stored in the \'X-Forwarded-For\' HTTP header. It can be directly obtained via Apache or NGINX logs.

Option C is interesting, but I'm not sure if it's applicable in this case since we're talking about Alibaba Cloud CDN, not a local web server.

D) You can activate the `record visitor's real IP` function in the Alibaba Cloud CDN console, then you can directly view visitor's IP addresses from the Alibaba Cloud CDN access logs.

I think the answer is B and D. The visitor's real IP address is stored in the 'X-Forwarded-For' header, and Alibaba Cloud CDN provides an option to record the real IP address in their access logs.
CE

Yes, and you can also activate the 'record visitor's real IP' function in the Alibaba Cloud CDN console to view visitor's IP addresses.
