client-identifier
Use this entry to designate the client identifier for the session.
client-identifier = client_identifier_value
Description
This identifier is added to the credential as the client_identifier attribute and is validated on subsequent requests to ensure the client does not change.
Options
client_identifier_value The client identifier value can be in either of the following formats:
CLIENT_IP The client IP address from the network connection is used as the identifier.
HTTPHDR{<name>} The contents of the HTTP header, which is identified by <name>, is used as the client identifier. If the HTTP header is missing on the initial request, no identifier is added for the session.
Usage: Optional If failover cookies are used, add the client_identifier credential attribute to the failover cookie by modifying the [failover-add-attributes] and [failover-restore-attributes] stanzas. This step ensures the client identifier can persist across a failover event.
Default value None
Example:
client-identifier = CLIENT_IP client-identifier = HTTPHDR{X-Forwarded-For}
