Bind Bedrock Dedicated Server to IP/Interface

It would be very helpful to be able to bind a server to a specific network interface and/or IP address to make hosting multiple servers easier. I understand that we can use different ports, but then console clients cannot connect even with the current work arounds.

    for those of us with multiple adapters on our server, it's impossible without using a 3rd party tool that breaks all sense of accountability of the server in all the automation I've made for it to run smoothly in Session0.

    With 4 other NIC's in my server setup, I can't just "-IP ###.###.###.###" and let the server breath free and automatically... no, this important feature was forgotten/left out/removed for some wildly inexcusable reason. and for 6 years has gotten ONLY TEN VOTES? insane, this feature is akin to expecting people to have separate servers for each and every installation of whatever game they are playing with their friends, running as a hobby, or hosting for a friend... like why bother building 1 powerhouse when the devs of bout 60% of games expect you to dump money on a new PC for their dedicated server files, cuz you know, they forgot what economy is.

    This SIMPLE feature needs to be added ASAP, just imagine the sudden surge of new players eager to host/join/play with their friends on their new EASY to setup server without having to pay a 3rd party to host a dedicated server that MIGHT be financially feasible on little Timmy's summer lawn mowing money budget.
