A company hosts a web application behind an Application Load Balancer (ALB) in us-east-1. Users in Europe report high latency. The SysOps administrator decides to use AWS Global Accelerator to improve performance by directing traffic to the closest edge location. However, the application logs require the original client IP addresses of users. The ALB currently provides the client IP via the X-Forwarded-For header, but the development team warns that Global Accelerator may change the source IP. Which configuration should the administrator choose to meet both performance and logging requirements?

Users are intermittently reporting 502 Bad Gateway errors when accessing the application through an Application Load Balancer. The team needs to identify which target IPs are associated with the failures and the request processing time for those requests. Application logs on instances do not capture failures before the ALB connection. What should be enabled?
