OK, I ran this by a friend who has spent more time looking at nginx configs than I have, and they were able to point out that I also needed set_real_ip_from 172.16.0.0/12;
for the container nginx in addition to the real_ip_header X-Forwarded-For;
. So at least that should stop the 429’s. I’ll see if the problem still recurs.
