The connection to varnish comes from the address 127.0.0.1. That's what
it logs here.

The connection to varnish comes from the address 192.168.0.1. That's
what it logs here.

varnish could see the "true" remote_addr in the X-Real-IP: http header
that you send, if it looked there.

If you want varnish to log the contents of that header, or to log that
instead of what it sees as the connecting ip address, you'll be better
off to ask in a place where people know varnish.
