X-Forwarded support

[medobond]

Experts,
Does MikroTik support X-Forward, i use destnat to purplish my E-mail server, but the connections in logs show coming from the MikroTik IP, i need to log the original source IP.

With destination NAT the original source IP is not translated!
That is source NAT. Probably you have both of them. Remove the source NAT.

No, Mikrotik does not support X-Forwarded since dstnat is NAT not Proxying.

That said, dstnat does not change the source IP of the connections.

So most likely you have some error in your configuration that srcnat/masquerade everything (even connections TO your network, instead of connection FROM your network only).
