IceGrid service templates and multiple network interface

Wout De Nolf

I have a service template which is used to create services in iceboxes under nodes that run on different machines. The problem is that all machines happen to have VMWare network interfaces next to the local area network interface. Hence I should specify the "Endpoints" property of the service template adapter, otherwise the VMWare endpoints are added which slows down responsiveness of invocations (because sometimes the VMWare endpoints are tried). But how do I do this? I cannot specify an IP address or DNS name, because the services will run on different machines. Is there a way of specifying the "local area network" interface?
