Description

As seen here ​https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/HTTP/Headers/Forwarded the Forwarded header seems to become the new and standardized way to define the forwarded ip/protocol when using a proxy. And to superseed the existing X-Forwarded-For/Proto/Protocol/etc headers.

A quick glimpse in into the code looks like currently there is still the "legacy" approach used. Are there any plans to use the new header?

According to the ticket's flags, the next step(s) to move this issue forward are:

  • Unknown. The Someday/Maybe triage stage is used to keep track of high-level ideas or long term feature requests.

    It could be an issue that's blocked until a future version of Django (if so, Keywords will contain that version number). It could also be an enhancement request that we might consider adding someday to the framework if an excellent patch is submitted.

    If you're interested in contributing to the issue, raising your ideas on the Django Forum would be a great place to start.
