Is there a way with Fiddler or an extension that you can set it up so
you can specify that all http traffic go out a specific NIC by
specifying a IP or preferably a domain name?

I'm not sure I fully understand the question. Can you explain your
scenario in more detail?

In Fiddler 2.2.6.5 and later, you can force all of Fiddler's outbound
traffic to use a particular network card; see http://fiddler.wikidot.com/egressip
for more detail on this.

This setting isn't (currently) a per-request setting, however; it will
apply to all requests from Fiddler.

I think that might work but I only want to do that with a specific
host or process. So for example:

All traffic that goes to microsoft.com, I want to go out my WiFi
connection (and if possible any other url's that have originated from
that session, e.g. an ad that the microsft.com site may be
displaying). All other traffic that is not from this host (or match my
criteria) will go out my LAN.

It looks like the egress stuff is all on or all off.

Does that help explain more of what I am trying to do?
Thanks,
-Rob

That helps a bit, although it doesn't answer the key question of *why*
you want to do this.

It would only take a little work to make it so you could target a
particular outbound IP for each request (rather than for all requests,
as is available today). It would be potentially MUCH harder to do the
"other urls that have originated from that session" case because
there's really not one definition of a "session." You could do
something like say "all requests from a given process" but it's not
clear that would meet your needs, since it's not really clear what
leads to those needs... ?

thanks!
