SYNOPSIS
       ASM::client_ip

DESCRIPTION
       Returns the IP address of the end client that sent the request.	Note

       by the command IP::client_addr, which is the IP address of the
       immediate client found in the IP header as received by BIG-IP. The
       latter can be a proxy, in which case the end client IP address is
       extracted from one of the HTTP headers, typically, X-Forwarded-For.
