But global in the since that each TCP port number must be unique + and TCP sockets. UDP port numbers must be similarly unique. + + This causes prorblems for the case where there multiple network devices + configured into the system. In that case, it should be possible to assign + the same TCP (or UDP) port number if the connection is associated with + different network devices. For example, if there are two instances of + a webserver, each listening for connections on a different device, each + should be able to use port 80 to listen for connections. + + The solution is is move the TCP and UDP port related resources: They + should not be global but shoud, instead, by a part of the device structure, + struct net_drivers_s. + + Status: Open + Priority: Very low if you have only a single network interface. Higher if you + have more than one. Very high if you need to have the same port numbers + on each network served by the device. + o USB (drivers/usbdev, drivers/usbhost) ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ |
