WSH IP address

user10026008Oct 16 2008 — edited Oct 21 2008
1) We have a client connecting into a WSL listener on a Solairs clusterd UNIX server. The UNIX server is behind a firewall.
The WSL ubb defintion is (CLOPT="-A -- -n //logical-computer-name:1234 -p 1234 -P 5678 -m 1 -x 10) -T 60"
2) The firewall rule allows the connection from the client to the WSL.
3) The WSH listener then sets up a conversation with the client on one of a range of ports (1235 - 5678)
4) The firewall allows the communication between the two system on the predefined port range.

The issue is the source IP address that gets added to the IP packet somtimes is not the logical-computer-name but the IP address of some other interface that is also defined. It appears that it is the first interface that is plumbed up.

How can I make sure that the source IP address in the packet is always the same and hopefully the logical-computer-name such that I don't have have all possible IP address on the server allowed in through the fire wall?

Thanks
