TL;DR - option forwardfor and http-request set-header X-Real-IP %[src] are not working.

My setup is slightly complicated. I have a homeserver, with HAProxy installed and some docker containers. My homeserver is, then, connected to a VPS via WireGuard which also has HAProxy installed. HAProxy on homeserver forwards the docker containers with an SSL certificate to the VPS. The VPS, then, just does TLS pass through to the clients.

The issue is, if I do not use option forwardfor in either of the 2 HAProxy configurations, I get the internal IP address of the docker container (172.XX.XX.1). If I add option forwardfor on the homeserver’s HAProxy config, I get the internal IP of the WireGuard of the home server (10.0.0.2). And if I add option forwardfor to the HAProxy config of the VPS as well, I get the internal IP of the WireGuard tunnel (10.0.0.1). And as far as I know, http-request set-header X-Real-IP %[src] has no impact. I have also tried using send-proxy and send-proxy-v2, but then the whole setup stops working.

HAProxy config on home server:

        timeout server  50000

#       http-request set-header X-Real-IP %[src]
        server main 10.0.0.2:443

I have to resort to this because I am behind CGNAT, and want TLS pass through on the VPS for privacy.

What am I doing wrong?
