The PROXY protocol provides a convenient way to safely transport connection information such as a client's address across multiple layers of NAT or TCP proxies. It is designed to require little changes to existing components and to limit the performance impact caused by the processing of the transported information.

Several libraries like Netty and Jetty supports ProxyProtocol.

I ask myself if we should support it OR at least ensure this is possible to use it with Leshan Server and Bootstrap Server ? 🤔

If you are a Leshan users and you already use it or you plan to use it, please let us know ?
