Re: best source address (TDI)

The best source address for the local endpoint using Winsock or TDI is INADDR_ANY (0). Let the stack figure out what interface and IP address to use.

You would specifiy a particular local interface (local IP address) only if you had some requirement to bind only to a particular interface.

Good luck,

Hello,

I want to find the best source address for a given destination address
in a TCP TDI filter, and bind the connection endpoint to that source
address. How can I do this in TDI?

Thanks,
Piyush

PS: Is this the right list for this question?
