[ http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MUSE-91?page=comments#action_12439274 ] Dan Jemiolo commented on MUSE-91: ---------------------------------
The NetworkInterface-based lookup will have to select an address based on which interface is being used to make the current request, but the point of this lookup is to create addresses outside of a request context. This seems more difficult than originally thought. The priority of this is already lowered, so we can work on it if there is time before code freeze or if more users start having problems with it. > Better handling of finding the right local ip address > ----------------------------------------------------- > > Key: MUSE-91 > URL: http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MUSE-91 > Project: Muse > Issue Type: Improvement > Affects Versions: 2.0.0 > Reporter: Andrew Eberbach > Assigned To: Dan Jemiolo > Priority: Minor > Fix For: 2.1.0 > > > An interesting problem surfaced recently.
