Description

If I'm right, by using the plugin, ss-server accepts requests from the local plugin server, so it cannot get the real client address. It seems that SIP003 does not provide any information about it.
But sometimes this is necessary, e.g. access control, statistics, or even better logging.
Is there any way?

Research direction

Start by reading the SIP003 specification and tracing how the plugin server and ss-server exchange requests. Determine whether the client address is exposed to ss-server; done means documenting a supported way to obtain it or clearly recording that the protocol needs a defined change.
