I am assuming you are getting the client IP shown correctly in the access
logs in tomcat.
The server IP is showing 127.0.0.1 because that what its connector has been
bound to. Change the connector's address to the public address and it will
show you that in the logs.

<Connector
    port="8080"
    protocol="HTTP/1.1"
    address="<public-IP here>"
    connectionTimeout="20000"
    redirectPort="8443"
  />


If its dynamic address, it will be problematic though...
