hi,
i've been looking at this same question since i switched to openvpn. i've got things rolling by binding the ip address, but binding to an interface seems so much cleaner.
i hesitate to plunge into building transmission ; does anyone know if the patch from #2313 every made it into a nightly build ? thanks !

Re: HowTo: Bind to a specific network interface
Sorry to dig up an old thread, but reading through what's here and the related ticket, I was just wondering what the current situation is in relation to exclusively binding Transmission to a specific interface? Would I be correct in assuming this feature has not made it into the standard build of Transmission? If so, are there any plans for this to happen at any point?

No.
You're a man of great lingual economy, sir. Thanks for the confirmation.
Re: HowTo: Bind to a specific network interface
Anything new here? It looks like a few people have written patches, but I don't see anything indicating that these patches have been successfully incorporated into any recent builds.
Re: HowTo: Bind to a specific network interface
Hey guys, I just wrote an app that adds this feature to Transmission on Mac. It's fully open-source and automatically updates the "BindAddressIPv4" (or IPv6) option in Transmission's preferences when the IP address of the binding interface changes.
It's a separate app so it doesn't require patching, and it should work with future versions of Transmission automatically. I hope this helps people who have been waiting for this feature on Mac.
More information and download links are in my post here: (I didn't want to copy-and-paste the same post)

Hi guys,
I second hbwhite's Clutch, using it now on macOS 10.13.5 and it works like a charm!
Best,
Matt
