//  to only use routes via the specified outgoing interface.
//  If IF is specified then ScopeId should be specified.
//
//  If the optional ScopeId is supplied, then this constraints the lookup
//  to only use routes via interfaces in the correct zone for the
//  scope of the destination address.

//  The ReturnConstrained parameter returns an indication of whether the
//  IF and ScopeId parameters constrained the returned NCE.
//  That is, if IF is NULL and ScopeId is non-zero (for scoped destinations)
//  then Constrained is always returned as zero. If IF is non-NULL and
//  a different NCE is returned than would have been returned if IF were
//  NULL, then Constrained is returned with RCE_FLAG_CONSTRAINED_IF set.
//  Similarly, if ScopeId is non-zero and a different NCE is returned
//  than would have been returned if ScopeId were zero, then Constrained
//  is returned with RCE_FLAG_CONSTRAINED_SCOPEID set.
