Forum Topic - maximum number of concurrent connection requests that can handled via. TCP socket in QNX: (1 Item)
   
maximum number of concurrent connection requests that can handled via. TCP socket in QNX  
Hi,

I have a scenario in which I need to service a number of client TCP socket connections with a single TCP server socket 
application within a predefined time interval. These connections may occur concurrently. So, can anybody please tell me 
how many TCP connections can be made to a QNX server via TCP sockets from different QNX clients concurrently? I hope, 
the 'backlog' parameter of listen() socket API actually refer to the maximum length that the queue of pending 
connections may grow to. It seems the maximum value of this parameter is defined as 128 (SOMAXCONN) in socket.h. Does 
this really affect the number of concurrent connections that can be handled? Is it possible to change the maximum 
backlog to say, 512? 

Can anybody please provide more authentic information on this?

thanks
