Ping out from a specific NIC

  • 772

I have a server with dual NICs, both of which have IP addresses in the same subnet. How would I send a ping out over a particular (chosen) NIC ?

Thanks .. KJ

    If you're using Windows, the closest equivalent is "ping -S [source address]".

  2. You should have specified which operating system you are using.

    Under Linux, you just use ping -I $interface, as the manpage can easily tell you.
