Hi @yangzhiqing001,
There is not currently any support for that configuration in Steeltoe

@yangzhiqing001
Can you explain more on what you mean "I need to choose the network"?

this is my network config.
when i use this config register to the eureka server.
i found that the registered IP address is 127.0.0.1.i think thas is a wrong address
The IP address I need should be 172.16.118.1

You know what... Re-reading this, I think we already have an alternative to the preferredNetworks feature that should work for you today - you can change the registration method and set the address directly.

Use settings in the second table on this page: https://steeltoe.io/docs/steeltoe-discovery/#1-2-2-eureka-client-settings to register by hostname or IP address and to select the method to use
