Depends on where cachemgr runs, and what address you tell cachemgr to
connect to.
If cachemgr runs on the same server and you tell it to connect to
localhost then the source will be localhost.
If cachemgr runs on another web server then the source IP address will
be that of the webserver where cachemgr runs.
If cachemgr runs on the same server and you tell it to connect to the
official proxy address (not localhost) then the source address will
usually be the same, but can vary a little depending on your OS and
setup..

I understand them fine.
What you should have is to log all traffic denied by your firewall
except for traffic you know what it is and do not want to see. This
way you do not need to guess what it going on.
