Thanks a lot for your effort. I’ve reviewed the code, but it would require more time to review, clean up, and fix than to reimplement it internally. We’ll close this item and handle the implementation ourselves, likely with AI assistance. No worries—we’ll get it done soon. |

After review again, it seems not too bad. |

Do we need to introduce all three options? Do you have any examples of other established apps using a similar approach? I’d like to see some reference designs. |

Short answer: no, three is one too many. The mode selector is derivable from the value. Established tools split this two ways: Two keys, one per form — no mode selector, whichever is set decides:
One key that accepts either form:
Either beats what I sent. I'd suggest the second: a single On the third key,
The difference is what the tool is for. For a torrent client, failing closed costs you a download. For RustDesk it can cost you the machine: if the bound interface disappears and we fail closed, the host stops listening, and you have lost access to the very box you would have needed it for. Falling back silently is the opposite failure — the VPN user in #2286 gets put back on the interface they asked us to keep off. Both are real and they point in opposite directions, which is why I made the choice explicit and defaulted it to the side that cannot lock you out. So: two keys if you want my recommendation — I am reworking both PRs to that shape now, so you have something concrete to look at instead of a proposal. If you would rather have a single key and always fall back, that is a small change on top and I will do it. Going in at the same time, independently of the naming:

Pushed again. Both of CodeRabbit's findings on the reworked code were real, and the websocket gap is now closed too. WebSocket transport is bound now. This was the item from your original list I had left out, and it turned out to matter more than a missing checkbox: I found this the hard way: the loopback integration test was failing on my machine for what looked like an unrelated reason, and the cause was that Android/iOS strict is no longer wrongly fail-closed. You were right that this contradicted the comment.
IPv6 link-local. Confirmed, though the framing was slightly off: on this host the real NIC lists a global address first and link-local last, so it is not "most interfaces". But Stale comment on the option keys: removed.

Included review availability: Your plan provides up to 2 included reviews per hour; 1 remains after this review.
Bind sockets to a chosen network interface or source IP, for incoming and outgoing connections, via the bind-interface option (off by default). The value is a source address when it parses as one and an interface name otherwise, the same rule libtorrent uses for outgoing_interfaces. An interface name also pins the socket to the device (SO_BINDTODEVICE on Linux/Android, IP_BOUND_IF on macOS/iOS, IP_UNICAST_IF on Windows) so egress follows it regardless of the routing table. Anything unusable -- an interface that is gone, or one with no address of the requested family -- falls back to letting the os choose. The device is only pinned when the same decision produced a source address, so pinning can never contradict the fallback. Covered: outgoing connections, the direct-access listener, the direct UDP setup path and its reachability probe, and the websocket transport, which dials through a socket we bind rather than letting tungstenite open an unbound one. Explicit listeners are not pinned: new_listener binds caller-supplied addresses such as the port-forward and RDP listeners on 127.0.0.1, and SO_BINDTODEVICE there would filter out traffic arriving on loopback. Interface names are resolved to the system device name before pinning, since if_nametoindex and SO_BINDTODEVICE do not accept friendly names, and Windows IPv6 uses the adapter's IPv6 scope id rather than the IPv4 interface index. Interface enumeration uses netdev 0.37, the newest release that still builds on the declared Rust 1.75. Adds unit tests for the decision matrix and loopback integration tests for the socket layer, the listener and the websocket transport.

Engine side of the interface binding requested in rustdesk/rustdesk#2286 ("Pull request is welcome"). The UI/wiring half is rustdesk/rustdesk#15675.
Off by default — existing installs behave exactly as before until an option is set.
What it does
Binds sockets to a chosen network interface or source IP, for both incoming and outgoing connections. The motivating case: after sleep/wake with a VPN up, the VPN owns the default route, so RustDesk registers and listens via the VPN and the host is no longer reachable on the LAN.
Two options (
src/config.rs):bind-interfacebind-strictY/ empty (default)One key covers both forms: the value is a source address when it parses as one and an interface name otherwise, the same rule libtorrent uses for
outgoing_interfaces. An interface name also pins the socket to the device, so egress follows the interface regardless of the routing table — which is what beats a full-tunnel VPN:SO_BINDTODEVICEIP_BOUND_IFIP_UNICAST_IFNaming and the collapse from three options to two follow the reference designs discussion in this PR.
Fallback, and why the listener differs
Non-strict falls back to all interfaces when the target is unavailable; strict does not. For egress, strict then binds a source address that cannot reach the peer, so the connect fails rather than leaving via another interface.
A listener must not use that sentinel. Binding loopback would leave the host "listening" while unreachable from everywhere, with nothing visible from the outside — so
listen_anyreports an unavailable target as an error instead, and logs the address it does bind. Note a bound listener cannot be dual-stack: v4-mapped acceptance only works on the unspecified address.Scope
Covered: outgoing connections (rendezvous, relay, direct peer), the incoming direct-connection listener, and the WebSocket transport. The last one matters more than it looks:
websocket.rsused to dial via tungstenite's ownconnect_async, which opens an unbound socket — so on any install withallow-websocketset, the binding would have been silently ignored for outgoing connections. It now dials through a socket we bind ourselves, and there is a test asserting the source address actually arrives at the peer.Not covered: the WebRTC transport and the SOCKS/HTTP proxy path, which have their own connection code.

Both pass on Linux (107 unit + 3 integration tests), as does the rest of
cargo test(socket_client::tests::test_nat64fails here, but it fails the same way on a cleanmain— it needs working IPv6 to nip.io).Not verified locally: Windows/macOS/iOS. I have no cross-toolchain on this machine, so those paths are unchanged-by-inspection only, and
IP_UNICAST_IF/IP_BOUND_IFhave not been re-run since the rework. A check there would be welcome.Summary by CodeRabbit
