WCF relative endpoint address exposed over all base addresses no matter binding used

I have this self hosted service. In the app.config I have two base addresses defined. One for http and one for net.tcp.

One contract is exposed through two endpoints, one with a basicHttpBinding and the other with a netTcpBinding.

Now, the strange thing is that both endpoints are available at both baseaddresses. If I connect to either endpoint with the wcfclient.exe application both endpoints show up. Ie basicHttpBinding over net.tcp and the other way around.

Why is this and can I do anything about it?

The config for reference.

<configuration>
<system.serviceModel>
<services>
  <service name="FileServer.BookService" behaviorConfiguration="serviceMetadata">
    <host>
      <baseAddresses>
        <add baseAddress="http://localhost"/>
        <add baseAddress="net.tcp://localhos开发者_开发技巧t"/>
      </baseAddresses>
    </host>
    <endpoint address="BookService"
              binding="netTcpBinding"
              contract="FileServer.IBookService">
    </endpoint>
    <endpoint address="BookService/mex"
              binding="mexTcpBinding"
              contract="IMetadataExchange">
    </endpoint>
    <endpoint address="BookService"
      binding="basicHttpBinding"
      contract="FileServer.IBookService">
    </endpoint>
    <endpoint address="BookService/mex"
              binding="mexHttpBinding"
              contract="IMetadataExchange">
    </endpoint>
    <endpoint address="basic"
              binding ="basicHttpBinding"
              contract="FileServer.ITest">
    </endpoint>
  </service>
</services>
<behaviors>
  <serviceBehaviors>
    <behavior name="serviceMetadata">
      <serviceMetadata httpGetEnabled="True"/>
      <serviceDebug includeExceptionDetailInFaults="True"/>
    </behavior>
  </serviceBehaviors>
</behaviors>
</system.serviceModel>

The WcfTestClient application will download the metadata information from the service, and the service itself has three endpoints - so the client is showing three endpoints, not two services. Even if you expose the metadata via two different places, the metadata is not relative to an endpoint or to a base address, but to the service host itself.

If you want a client getting the metadata from the HTTP address to get only the HTTP endpoint (and the same for TCP), you can use two hosts, like in the example below.
