So I have Nginx proxy and some servers running behind it. I need to know real users IP not proxy, so I using real_ip module. Everything is working as expected, but if I configure vhost like subdomain.domain.com backend getting Nginx proxy IP.

Here is my Nginx config sample

set_real_ip_from 192.168.2.0/24;
real_ip_header X-Forwarded-For;
real_ip_recursive on;

upstream srv1 { server 192.168.2.12:80; }

server {

listen 80;
server_name dev.somedomain.com;

location / {
proxy_pass http://srv1;
}

}

server {

listen 80;
server_name somedomain.com;

location / {
proxy_pass http://srv1;
}

}

So if I go to somedomain.com backend receiving real IP, no problems here. But for dev.somedomain.com backend receiving proxy IP!

And this is only shortened example, same situation with different domains and subdomains...
