Status: Open
Priority: 3

Summary: Prevent connection to same server
Initial Comment:
When using -n x, axel will connect to the same IP, even if there are
multiple DNS RR available. There should be a flag added that disallows
simutaneous connections to the same IP:
--diff-ip -d Forces connections to connect to different IP
This would allow one to set a high value for -n (for mirror sites such as
www.kernel.org), yet not incur the wrath of admins who disallows "download
accelators" to a single server.
