Interface binding in java TCP connection

Question

I have two interfaces in the Solaris lobby. I would like to initiate two TCP connections to one TCP server through both interfaces, as shown in the diagram. Is there any way in Java to bind an interface to a TCP socket to override the local routing table?

I am connecting a network diagram,

I would like to use as the bandwidth of serial lines to receive data from the server. Therefore, I would like to initiate a connection on both interfaces.

thanks,

Answer 1

you can use

Socket s = new Socket(hostname, port, localInterface, 0); 

However, many operating systems do not follow this “hint” and will still use the routing table.

Answer 2

You mean something like this:

 Socket socket1 = new Socket(); socket1.bind(new InetSocketAddress("10.1.1.1", port)); socket1.connect(new InetSocketAddress("10.1.3.1", port)); Socket socket2 = new Socket(); socket2.bind(new InetSocketAddress("10.1.2.1", port)); socket2.connect(new InetSocketAddress("10.1.3.1", port);
