Then
You cannot. Your OS's TCP stack determines what source IP to use; the
base IP on the interface used to reach the destination network.
Thanks to all your clarifications and suggestions - actually there
were redundant routes on this host which resulted in unpredictable

Howdy,
Actually, some versions of ping do allow you to set the source
