HAProxy

 It is a reverse proxy to load balance traffic to the backend servers. It t operates on either tcp (layer 4) or http (layer X ) mode. To the backend servers, the. Kirby become the proxy. Therefore proxy can be configured to add the client ip by adding it as extra http headers. 

ACL can be used ti define a condition which in turn used in other statement to filter (limited) if a connection is to be forwarded to the backend. 

A HAProxy can be set up to forward different traffic received (interface and port) to different set of backend
