Red Hat Satellite engineering is moving the tracking of its product development work on Satellite to Red Hat Jira (issues.redhat.com). If you're a Red Hat customer, please continue to file support cases via the Red Hat customer portal. If you're not, please head to the "Satellite project" in Red Hat Jira and file new tickets here. Individual Bugzilla bugs will be migrated starting at the end of May. If you cannot log in to RH Jira, please consult article #7032570. That failing, please send an e-mail to the RH Jira admins at rh-issues@redhat.com to troubleshoot your issue as a user management inquiry. The email creates a ServiceNow ticket with Red Hat. Individual Bugzilla bugs that are migrated will be moved to status "CLOSED", resolution "MIGRATED", and set with "MigratedToJIRA" in "Keywords". The link to the successor Jira issue will be found under "Links", have a little "two-footprint" icon next to it, and direct you to the "Satellite project" in Red Hat Jira (issue links are of type "https://issues.redhat.com/browse/SAT-XXXX", where "X" is a digit). This same link will be available in a blue banner at the top of the page informing you that that bug has been migrated.

Description Joniel Pasqualetto 2021-11-19 15:38:30 UTC 
Description of problem:

After the removal of the setting remote_addr, customer that used that feature need to add the parameter trusted_proxies on /etc/foreman/settings.yaml.

This works, but there's no way to make that permanent and satellite-installer overwrites the settings.yaml on every execution.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):


Actual results: 

Not being able to use this feature, some provisioning deployments involving capsules and user-data won't work due to Satellite not being able to identify the source IP of the VM.

Expected results:

A way to specify a list of trusted_proxies that may be forward requests to Satellite.

Additional info:
Comment 1 Eric Helms 2022-05-19 13:51:10 UTC 
This will be available when Satellite 6.11.0 is released.
Comment 2 Brad Buckingham 2022-07-18 23:45:01 UTC 
Based upon comment 1, aligning to 6.12.
Comment 3 Gaurav Talreja 2022-09-23 17:59:48 UTC 
Verified.

Tested on Satellite 6.12.0 Snap 11.0
Version: foreman-installer-3.3.0.3-1.el8sat.noarch

Steps:
1. # satellite-installer --foreman-trusted-proxies 127.0.0.1/8 --foreman-trusted-proxies ::1 --foreman-trusted-proxies <ip-address-of-eth0-on-capsule>

2. # cat /etc/foreman/settings.yaml | grep -A3 trusted
# List of trusted IPs / networks. Default: IPv4 and IPV6 localhost addresses.
# If overwritten, localhost addresses (127.0.0.1/8, ::1) need to be in trusted_proxies IP list.
# More details: https://api.rubyonrails.org/classes/ActionDispatch/RemoteIp.html
:trusted_proxies:
 - '127.0.0.1/8'
 - '::1'
 - '<ip-address-of-eth0-on-capsule>'

Observation:
satellite-installer includes following trusted_proxies in settings file after execution, which unblocks traffic through capsule for satellite provisioning.
