I would like to listen on 100 different TCP port with the same server. Here's what I'm currently doing:-
import socket
import select
def main():
server_socket = socket.socket(socket.AF_INET, socket.SOCK_STREAM)
server_socket.setsockopt(socket.SOL_SOCKET, socket.SO_REUSEADDR, 1)
for i in range(1000,1100):
server_socket.bind(('127.0.0.1', i))
server_socket.listen(1)
read_list = [server_socket]
while True:
readable, writable, exceptional = select.select(read_list, [], read_list)
for s in readable:
if s is server_socket:
#print "client connected"
client_socket, address = server_socket.accept()
read_list.append(client_socket)
else:
# One of the tcp clients
data = s.recv(1024)
if not result:
s.close()
read_list.remove(s)
#print "client disconnected"
if __name__ == "__main__":
main()
It returns an error saying Permission Denied
. Is it because some ports(1000-1100) are reserved and are not allocated to it or because of some other reason?
I tried with (8000-8100) and it says Invalid Arguments
EDITED
import socket
import select
def create_socket(TCP_PORT):
server_socket = socket.socket(socket.AF_INET, socket.SOCK_STREAM)
server_socket.setsockopt(socket.SOL_SOCKET, socket.SO_REUSEADDR, 1)
server_socket.bind(('127.0.0.1', TCP_PORT))
server_socket.listen(1)
return server_socket
def main():
read_list = []
for TCP_PORT in range(8000,8100):
read_list.append(create_socket(TCP_PORT))
while True:
readable, writable, exceptional = select.select(read_list, [], read_list)
for s in readable:
if s is server_socket:
#print "client connected"
client_socket, address = server_socket.accept()
read_list.append(client_socket)
else:
# One of the tcp clients
data = s.recv(1024)
if not result:
s.close()
read_list.remove(s)
#print "client disconnected"
if __name__ == "__main__":
main()
There are 2 problems.
Ports below 1024 are reserved. (You'll need special privileges, e.g. root privileges to bind to such a port).
A socket can only listen at one port. So to listen to several port, you need to create one socket per port.
