Hi Emmanuel, I'm using Snort. It dont (yet) permit use of "X-Forwarded-For" :( Anyway since I cant block IP of SSL-out box, then this feature come out I cant put a inline IDS with active response function on same box. Maybe IDS sensor after SSL-out box, then, on a event... send a command to SSL-out box to DROP attacker IP... Or just put IDS and SSL-out on same box... (I prefer segregate, anyway sending a DROP command to another box will slow down response a little...) If any event detected from a X-Forwarded IP then just put on iptables (-I INPUT -s <X-Forwarded-For> -j DROP) or something like that...
