Preserve client IP and client certificate with SharePoint
Using x-forwarded-for preserves the client IP but interferes with Common Access Card (CAC) authentication when using AUTOmap with a Standard vs. We have switched to nPath routing for generic application servers to preserve both client IP and client certificate. How or can we preserve both the source IP and client certificate for a Sharepoint application server (2010 and 2016)? Unfortunately an inline configuration is out of the question. Look forward to suggestions or recommended reading.
Sharepoint:
Client (ip, CAC) <--> LTM/VIP/pool <--> Real Servers (CAC authentication)
nPath:
Client (ip, CAC) --> LTM/VIP/pool --> Real Servers (ip, CAC authentication) data returns to client via router
