Description
Looking at the documentation at: https://docs.nginx.com/nginx/admin-guide/load-balancer/using-proxy-protocol/#changing-the-load-balancer-s-ip-address-to-the-client-ip-address
There is this sentence: "With these modules, the $remote_addr and $remote_port variables reatain the real IP address and port of the client, while the $remote_addr and $remote_port variables retain the IP address and port of the load balancer."
"reatain" is a misspelling of "retain", and the second pair of variables should be the "realip_" versions.
The sentence should be: "With these modules, the $remote_addr and $remote_port variables retain the real IP address and port of the client, while the $realip_remote_addr and $realip_remote_port variables retain the IP address and port of the load balancer."
