1180	Allow use of hostnames in set_real_ip_from	mmitar@…		"I use nginx inside Docker containers and I also use a Docker container for reverse proxy which then forwards requests to those other Docker containers. Because I would like to be able to specify move containers around and change their internal IPs, I am looking into how to configure nginx inside Docker containers with a hostname for `set_real_ip_from`, so that as the reverse proxy moves around, its correct internal IP is used.

It seems this could be resolved by allowing variables inside `set_real_ip_from`. Or by simply allowing hostnames for `set_real_ip_from`."	enhancement	closed	minor		nginx-module	1.9.x	fixed		mmitar@…	Linux web 4.8.0-34-generic #36~16.04.1-Ubuntu SMP Wed Dec 21 18:55:08 UTC 2016 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux	"nginx version: nginx/1.10.1
