NW 25 - Handing Off TCP Connections to a Different Port (14-May-96)


Q I'm implementing a passive TCP connection and would like to know whether this connection can hand off the connection to a different port address?

A No, the hand-off connection endpoint must be bound to the same address as the endpoint which passed off the connection. This is an XTI requirement as discussed in Appendix B of the XTI specification, Section B.3.
