Include backend name/ip in response headers in haproxy

I am stuffing haproxy in front of 3 riak nodes with HTTP. I want the backend name and/or ip in the response headers. Something like:

X-Proxy-Backend: riak-1 10.0.0.1

or whatever.

How can I make this happen?


You can use the cookie function to add the serverid into your response. For example:

cookie SERVERID insert indirect
server webA 192.168.1.11:80 cookie A check

This will insert a cookie called SERVERID=A into the HTTP headers.
