Does the network proxy hide the backend IPs?
I have a proxy on my network on a separate host from my backend servers. Is it possible for a bad actor to figure out what the IPs are to my backend servers if I only give them the IP to the proxy?

generally not, unless you mess up and leak the backend ip in another way
the proxy handles all traffic from the end user to the backend
even with ping passthrough and/or ip forwarding or whatever it's called?
thats just the proxy forwarding the connecting player ips
not the other way around
ah
with ping passthrough though
if it's pinging a backend server
could that expose the backend server's IP
no
because its not the client doing it
the proxy is passing through the backend response it got
alright, thanks for the info!
