If you have additional logging turned on, and your proxy supports it, (and
you have "enable_xff") turned on in the snort.conf we'll log the actual IP
in the additional data in the unified2 file.


Just to clarify something, barnyard2 will process (read) but will not
log EXTRA_DATA events to the database.
