RemoteCIDRFilter looks to just filter on the incoming IP.

RemoteIpFilter also checks for X-Forwarded-For

Usability wise ... My end user pref would be
- Require one or the other, not both
- If CIDR and regex set - Throw error (eliminate any confusion)
- If you need both - Use 2 instances

One functional equivalent (I think, then just do nothing) is to use
RemoteIpFilter with .+ (allow all) and then use RemoteCIDRFilter next in
the pipeline
