The outgoing interface can be selected, but not the preferred source address (see (1)), which remains always the same within an interface. If this a bug ? Or a known limitation of the kernel ? (1) IPROUTE2 Utility Suite Howto "src ADDRESS --- the source address to prefer using when sending to the destinations covered by route prefix. This address must be defined on a local machine interface. This will come into play when routes and rules are combined with the masquerade rules of the ipchains firewall we discuss later." -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe netdev" in the body of a message to majordomo@...r.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
