[f-nsp] ServerIron - Logging Source IP at Server Level

[Adam Waite]

There's 3 ways to do this:

1. Turn off Source NAT in the config (this requires the real servers to 
have routeable ip addresses)
2. Use DSR mode instead of full proxy mode
3. Turn on client-ip header insertion on the LB and run a plugin on the 
webserver to extract the header and use it in the logs. The syntax for 
this is "port http request-insert client-ip" in the virtual server config.
