Use other IP address of webserver - php

Question

I have php program which I run via CLI. The aim of program is to connect some address http and get some data. Its works OK. But I want to use other IP address of my webserver instead of primary. Is there any solution for this ?
EDIT Webserver has multiple ip address. I want to use any of them I choose at any request. If not possible at least 1 specific one. I have tried CURL_INTERFACE, and its not sending data while i give other ip than primary

Depends on http server you are using , you can bind your "virtual host" configurations to specific address and port.
in Apache2 for example :
<VirtualHost **127.0.0.10:8080**>
ServerAdmin myemail#mywebsite.com
ServerName mywebsite.com
ServerAlias www.mywebsite.com
DirectoryIndex index.php index.htm
DocumentRoot /var/websites/mywebsite.com/www
<Directory "/var/websites/mywebsite.com/www">
Options Indexes FollowSymLinks MultiViews
AllowOverride All
Order allow,deny
Allow from all
</Directory>
ErrorLog logs/mywebsite.com-error_log
</VirtualHost>
With nginx , something like :
server
{
server_name example.com www.example.com;
**listen 66.113.100.140:80;**
access_log /var/log/ngnix/example.log;
error_log /var/log/nginx/example.error.log;
location /site {
alias /data/www/content/site/example;
}
location / {
proxy_pass_header Server;
proxy_set_header Host $http_host;
proxy_redirect off;
proxy_set_header X-Real-IP $remote_addr;
proxy_set_header X-Scheme $scheme;
proxy_connect_timeout 10;
proxy_read_timeout 10;
proxy_pass http://10.15.20.10:8107/;
}
}
Also starting from PHP 5.4 there is build in web server that could be used for testing purposes. Generally you can bind to any local address as following :
$ cd ~/public_html
$ php -S 127.0.1.1:8000

If you can use curl for outgoing http requests, you can set an option in curl: CURLOPT_INTERFACE
curl_setopt($curlh, CURLOPT_INTERFACE, "xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx");
**CURLOPT_INTERFACE**: The name of the outgoing network interface to use. This can be an interface name, an IP address or a host name.
