Bela Ban commented on JGRP-1262:
--------------------------------

How about a bind port ? Would you want to pick the bind address only, or also a bind port ?

> The client-side of the TCP connection FD_SOCK makes is not bound to a specific IP, so the OS just chooses one.
> This makes it difficult to set up strict firewall rules on a multi-homed server.
> Customer would like a way to bind the outgoing socket to a specific IP
> (either re-using bind_addr or adding an additional property would work).
