How to setup IP spoofing in jmeter?

Question

I am now load testing a website through jmeter from my machine. But I want a real world scenario , so can ip aliasing or ip spoofing be used by jmeter which will look like requests are being sent from different ip addresses.?

Answer 1

Yes it can, see property Source IP address::

Note that you must use HTTPClient implementations.
