I use setsockopt() to set the bounded interface of the socket, and 
then I get receiving interface index while no message is received through
the above socket,shoudn't the bounded interface be returned?

If message is received,the address returned is what the received
message refered to, otherwise the address returned is what I used setsockopt()
to set before.
