    Description

      There is information missing from the sections describing purpose of mms.remoteIp.header configuration file setting (Ops Manager configuration). These sections are Load Balancer Remote IP Header and Multiple Ops Manager Application Servers. Both sections need to state that in addition to identifying the originating client's IP address, mms.remoteIp.header configuration also enables use of X-Forwarded-Proto header which is used to propagate the correct protocol in the case of redirects (http or https). If the requests to OM behind a load balancer have this X-Forwarded-Proto header, the requests will redirect to pages using desired protocol if (and only if) this mms.remoteIp.header is configured.
