How does the explorer decide which interface to use when scanning?

Modified on Tue, Apr 9 at 4:37 PM

The runZero Explorer uses the operating system TCP/IP stack, including its routing table. The interface used for any given IP address will be determined by the OS routing table.

On Linux, the routing table can be manipulated using the ip route command. For example:

ip route add 192.168.2.0/24 via 192.168.1.1 dev eth0

On macOS or BSD Unix, you can use the route command. For example:

route add -net 192.168.64/20 -interface en0
