Post #268,208 by bluke 9/21/06 7:25:43 AM Reply	Accessing multiple networks programatically If I have a machine with multiple network connections (e.g. wired and wireless or 2 network cards) how can I programatically select the network that I want to use? Is there a standard API? In other words when I open a socket, sometimes I want to use network A and sometimes B. Ideally I would like to be able to do this in Java.
