Hi,

want to change the ip address(basically want to use vip) when using DBI connect method. Is there any way to set vip forcibly or set some variable so that on destination side when we check incoming connection, it should see vip(PIP which is not same to real host ip) what we are passing via connect method.
Any help will be appreciated. Thanks.

Adding some more information:

lo:1 is already configured on hosts. How we can dynamically change outbound traffic for a process from eth -> lo:1.
example: have one perl program, using dbi->connect() method for connection to RDBMS. once connection gets established if check incoming connection on db host,it always sees real host ip address. my requirement is to change the routing via lo:1 dynamically in program so that it will see vip ip address. any possibility ?
