This post illustrate how to filter out internal proxy addresses from the real client IP address whereas internal proxy address is represented in the form of CIDR notation in your application Example of CIDR notation of IP addresses. 10.0.0.0/8 - This represents range of IP addresses from 10.0.0.0 to 10.255.255.255 Try it out at https://mxtoolbox.com/subnetcalculator.aspx In below example we use SubnetUtils of Apache Common Net 3.6 API to check whether particular IP address is in range of IP addresses which is represented in CIDR notation. We also illsutrate how to use Java 8 stream, Map, Filter along with the Predicate which is passed to Filter.
