    Where can I find a definition for the X-Forwarded-For HTTP header? Most sites refer to the Wikipedia site. Here the X-Forwarded-For format is described as X-Forwarded-For: client, proxy1, proxy2. I'm curious what valid strings for one entry can be. Are following examples valid entries?

    • 192.0.2.60
    • 192.0.2.60:58074
    • 2001:db8:cafe::17
    • [2001:db8:cafe::17]:47011
    • "[2001:db8:cafe::17]:47011"
