How enable x-forwarded-for / client ip instead of load balancer ip at logging?

Today, 11:53

We connect to Zabbix UI (two sites) via loadbalancer. How I change Zabbix user logging data configuration so, that logged ip is actually real client ip, not load balancer ip. Load balancer sends x-forwared-for info.

-Apache 2.4
-Zabbix 7.0

Not really a zabbix question ...

First couple of Google results

Apache and X-Forwarded-For Header: How to log XFF using Apache | Loadbalancer

https://www.loadbalancer.org/blog/apache-and-x-forwarded-for-headers/

There’s been a lot of debate here in the office about how best to capture both your Loadbalancer’s IP and the Source IP of the user in your access_log in Apache 2.4. This is the tried and tested method we've come up with.
