How can I force the LTM SOCKS Service to send connect requests out a specific interface?

Hello, I've set up an LTM running 11.6 to act as an stunnel server (see stunnel.org). A client on the Internet is configured as an stunnel client. The stunnel client is listening on TCP port 1080...

Thanks for the quick reply, Brad.

I couldn't see a way to configure the next hop in my irule_whitelist_SOCKS iRule because 

nexthop
isn't allowed inside a 
SOCKS_REQUEST
event. Since I only want the 
nexthop
to apply for connection requests from the SOCKS server, where would I apply it?

Regards,

Steve
