Cloudflare shows user real IP in my site but not in the logs (CF IPs getting blocked by mod_qos)

Hey there! I don't think those particular modules can detect the true IP address. I would be curious to know why you're still seeing an attack even though you're using Cloudflare, as that should be absorbing that type of traffic for you. 0 -

Yeah it didn't help actually so I moved to sucuri instead, it's great and helping.. cloudflare just becoming worse with high prices for such protection... any way thanks for the response! It might be Irrelevant to this topic :), is there any way to remove or replace cloudflare IPs to sucuri IP in nginx configurations? because when I put them in server-includes nginx gives error that it's duplicate because of cloudflare ips.. if I put them in cloudflare.conf then it resets.. so wondering if there is a settings there to fix this issue.. shouldn't cloudflare config placed in /etc/nginx/conf.d/includes_optional/cpanel-proxy-vendors/... So user adds them by themselves or replace it with other IPs etc... that's really annoying... or is it any other way to fix it? really appreciate the advice! (currently, client IP shows only servers IP, I tried all sucuri's documentation for apache, but the problem here might be nginx as well...)0 -
I'm glad you found a solution that works for you. I don't personally have any experience with Sucuri so I can't comment on that, but you'll want to ensure you have the mod_remoteip package installed no matter what. 0 -
I know, but because nginx is a reserve proxy, so the IP need to be added in nginx, but because of cloudflare IP is there so I can't add my other ips such as sucuri... it says it's duplicate.. that's the issue that cpanel added cloudflare IP to the server block by default.. not all users need cloudflare IPs.. so that's my issue for now. I don't need that inside the server block, if it was a customisation or some graphical on/off button for cloudflare that would be great so user can add their own IPs or cloudflare IPs. I have moved some of my sites to plesk now, they are more customized than cpanel. 0 -
