How Can I change the Subnet For Mechanize/LWP

kharaku has asked for the wisdom of the Perl Monks concerning the following question:

Hi I have been using a different IP address on my server for running WWW::Mechanize (using the local_address feature which I believe comes from LWP::UserAgent) The problem is that I now want to use a different address on the server which is on a different subnet. Is there anyway to set this?

If you change the local IP address on the TCP/IP level, then the answers won't reach your client. So the only things you can do is 1) run the script on a machine in the right subnet 2) find a proxy in the right subnet 3) forget it.	[reply]
