Choosing which IP the HTTP request is using when having multiple IPs (.NET)

Question

I am writing a .NET program which will run on a computer with several IP addresses. The program makes HTTP requests to given web addresses. I want to choose which IP address

Answer 1

I believe you can force the local endpoint by providing a BindIPEndPointDelegate which supplies the IP/port to bind to.

string sendingIp = "192.168.0.1";
int sendingPort = 5000;
Uri uri = new Uri("http://google.com");
HttpWebRequest wr = (HttpWebRequest)WebRequest.Create(uri);
ServicePoint sp = ServicePointManager.FindServicePoint(uri);
sp.BindIPEndPointDelegate =
    (servicePoint,remoteEp,retryCount) =>
         {
             return new IPEndPoint(IPAddress.Parse(sendingIp),sendingPort);
         };
var data = new StreamReader(wr.GetResponse().GetResponseStream()).ReadToEnd();

This code doesn't deal with disposal correctly.
