ARES_SET_LOCAL_DEV(3) Library Functions Manual ARES_SET_LOCAL_DEV(3) NAME ares_set_local_dev - Bind to a specific network device when creating sock- ets. SYNOPSIS #include <ares.h> void ares_set_local_dev(ares_channel_t *channel, const char* local_dev_name) DESCRIPTION The ares_set_local_dev 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 op- tion is only supported on Linux, the interface must not be already bound to the socket or the current effective user must have CAP_NET_RAW capability in the current network namespace for the option to work. If SO_BINDTODE- VICE is not supported or the setsockopt call fails (probably because of permissions), the error is silently ignored. SEE ALSO ares_set_local_ip4(3) ares_set_local_ip6(3) network_namespaces(7) NOTES This function was added in c-ares 1.7.4 23 September 2024 ARES_SET_LOCAL_DEV(3)
