= Changing the Default Bind Address for {brandname} Servers
You can use the server `-b` switch or the `infinispan.bind.address`
system property to bind to a different address.

For example, bind the `public` interface to `127.0.0.2` as follows:

Linux::
[source,bash,options="nowrap",subs=attributes+]
----
include::cmd_examples/server_bind_nix.adoc[]
----

Windows::
[source,bash,options="nowrap",subs=attributes+]
----
include::cmd_examples/server_bind_win.adoc[]
