Can you describe more detail ? How to specify and why ?

Hi,

Can you describe more detail ? How to specify and why ?

Sure, I meant is it possible to make the client use a specific network interface when connecting to the server in case of having multiple network interfaces. Hope that makes the request more clear

[blizard863]

I got it. @alimdi

I think the connect_server_local_ip arg will match your demand ?

[alimdi]

That's definetly what I was looking for. Thank you @blizard863

@alimdi is this worked for you? i am looking for the same with http_proxy plugin and using the below config [http_proxy] type = tcp connect_server_local_ip = 192.168.10.100 remote_port = 24002 plugin = http_proxy plugin_http_user = plugin_http_passwd =

but it still providing my default network

[alimdi]

@mecorpking It is working but I've defined connect_server_local_ip in [common] scope not in [http_proxy] Give it a shot...

[mecorpking]

@alimdi i tried with that also but received " login to server failed: i/o deadline reached". if possible can you share sample frps.ini and frpc.ini , below is my sample file

server_addr = 1.2.3.4 /sample server_port = 2000 token = 12345678 log_file = ./connection.log protocol = tcp connect_server_local_ip = 192.168.10.100 tcp_mux = true

[http_proxy] type = tcp remote_port = 24003 plugin = http_proxy plugin_http_user = plugin_http_passwd =

[alimdi]

I'm not using http_proxy Have you tried to check if the interface were used with tcpdump ?

[mecorpking]

i think there is some issue with my frps config if you could share, it will help alot
