NAME

6       remctl_set_source_ip - Set source IP for remctl client connections
7

SYNOPSIS

9       #include <remctl.h>
10
11       int remctl_set_source_ip(struct remctl *r, const char *source);
12

DESCRIPTION

14       remctl_set_source_ip() sets the source IP address for subsequent calls
15       to remctl_open() on the same struct remctl object.  Call this function
16       before remctl_open() if remctl client connections need to come from a
17       specific source IP.
18
19       The source parameter may be an IPv4 or IPv6 address (assuming the host
20       supports IPv6).
21
22       Be aware that if you set an IPv4 source address and then attempt to
23       connect to an IPv6 address or IPv6-only host, or if you set an IPv6
24       address and then attempt to connect to an IPv4 address or IPv4-only
25       host, you will get a connection failure error from remctl_open().
26

RETURN VALUE

28       remctl_set_source_ip() returns true on success and false on failure.
29       On failure, the caller should call remctl_error() to retrieve the error
30       message.
31

COMPATIBILITY

33       This interface was added in version 3.0.
