Provide a custom address for a specific host and port pair. Using this, you
|
|
|
|
|
can make the curl requests(s) use a specified address and prevent the
|
|
|
|
|
otherwise normally resolved address to be used. Consider it a sort of
|
|
|
|
|
/etc/hosts alternative provided on the command line. The port number should be
|
|
|
|
|
the number used for the specific protocol the host will be used for. It means
|
|
|
|
|
you need several entries if you want to provide address for the same host but
|
|
|
|
|
different ports.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The provided address set by this option will be used even if --ipv4 or --ipv6
|
|
|
|
|
is set to make curl use another IP version.
