Either, by configuring the IP address in tcp_outgoing_address as you
wrote in your first mail. The OS *may* use the interface associated with
that IP, unless the dst-IP routing requires a different one.

OR, by doing nothing in squid.conf and letting the OS select the IP it
already knows to use on the routes to wherever the dst-IP is going.
