Reverse Proxy
This provides authentication through a Reverse Proxy, where the proxy is determining the identity of the user. When using this method the email, name or username of the user can be passed in a request header allowing the user to authenticate BUG.
By default the header field REMOTE_USER is used which is expecting to match the user’s email as configured in system/user. This behavior can adjusted in system/security/proxy.
By default this security is restricted with a source address filter to
192.168.0.0/24127.0.0.0/8
When using this login method you should adjust the source filter list to x.x.x.x/32 to only accept requests for this authentication type from a trusted proxy.
