A TCP connection is a 4-tuple
(server addr,server port,client addr,client port)
Therefore it is not a problem to have multiple clients connecting to the
same server port.
This is effectively enforced at the client end where you will not be able to
bind 2 client sockets to the same address and port(normally you just accept
the default anyway which just allocates the next port).

Hi all,
I've implemented a TCP server using the Socket async methods.
When connecting to the server from 3 instances of hyper terminal,
i've noticed that each of the newly created server sockets, uses the same
server port.
I assumed that a new connection will receive a unique port.
If this is the way its suppose to work, is it a performance issue?
Is it possible that connections from the same IP will connect on the same
server port?
I have no way to test it, as i have only one computer.
Thanks,
Sharon.
