The argument should be of type char * and contain a single IPv6 address as a string. Set this option to NULL to use the default setting (don't bind to a specific IP address). The application does not have to keep the string around after setting this option. .SH DEFAULT NULL .SH PROTOCOLS All .SH EXAMPLE .nf CURL *curl = curl_easy_init(); if(curl) { curl_easy_setopt(curl, CURLOPT_URL, "http://example.com/foo.bin"); curl_easy_setopt(curl, CURLOPT_DNS_LOCAL_IP6, "fe80::a9ff:fe46:b619"); ret = curl_easy_perform(curl); curl_easy_cleanup(curl); } .fi .SH AVAILABILITY This option requires that libcurl was built with a resolver backend that supports this operation. The c-ares backend is the only such one. Added in 7.33.0 .SH RETURN VALUE Returns CURLE_OK if the option is supported, CURLE_UNKNOWN_OPTION if not, CURLE_NOT_BUILT_IN if support was disabled at compile-time, or CURLE_BAD_FUNCTION_ARGUMENT when given a bad address. .SH "SEE ALSO" .BR CURLOPT_DNS_INTERFACE "(3), " CURLOPT_DNS_LOCAL_IP4 "(3), "
