.TH ARES_SET_LOCAL_DEV 3 "30 June 2010"
|
||
|
.SH NAME
|
||
|
ares_set_local_dev \- Bind to a specific network device when creating sockets.
|
||
|
.SH SYNOPSIS
|
||
|
.nf
|
||
|
.B #include <ares.h>
|
||
|
.PP
|
||
|
.B void ares_set_local_dev(ares_channel \fIchannel\fP, const char* \fIlocal_dev_name\fP)
|
||
|
.fi
|
||
|
.SH DESCRIPTION
|
||
|
The \fBares_set_local_dev\fP function causes all future sockets
|
||
|
to be bound to this device with SO_BINDTODEVICE. This forces communications
|
||
|
to go over a certain interface, which can be useful on multi-homed machines.
|
||
|
This option is only supported on Linux, and root privileges are required
|
||
|
for the option to work. If SO_BINDTODEVICE is not supported or the
|
||
|
setsocktop call fails (probably because of permissions), the error is
|
||
|
silently ignored.
