I ran across a similar problem where we needed to telnet to a switch that
was addressed of the secondary address. The switch did not have a default
gateway set and could not route to the primary address of the ethernet
interface. Solution was to swap the primary and secondary long enough to
set the default gateway on the switch. We looked on TAC and tried the
source and I think that there was also a next hop command usable with
telnet, alas neither worked.
Summary, depending on your situation, you might be able to swap your
primary and secondaries for a moment.

Being a wise-guy on this list will get you flamed. Or at the least, ruin
your credibility especially if you don't have any to start with. People
here have good memories, so if you want your future questions answered, a
little helpfulness would be to your best advantage. Also, if you have the
answer, post it or at least post a hint to it, which is how we usually work
here. If you don't know the answer, then keep watching until the answer is
posted.

The only command I could find was 'ip telnet source-interface' which doesn't
use the secondary address of the interface. I searched through the archives
using 'telnet source' and one of the hits used a loopback as a source
address (if that's something that you can do instead of the secondary
address)
