Hello, This issue is about your client side system-configuration, rather than JMeter issue. However, since a multi-threaded test plan needs lots of connections to run, you can easily exhaust max connections, at which point it will try and reuse connections - so this relates on what you are doing with JMeter (OS, application under test, test plan). It doesn't seem related to your question, its an error about available outgoing sockets on client machine rather than listening ports on the application server (hope they are not the same machine ;) in your case).
So start looking at this from this angle and if you can't figure it out, see if you can quick fix it by increasing the available connections (any OS) or file-descriptors (for linux is also required, each socket uses 1 file descriptor). On the long term you should consider why you need as many connections as you are using - if you actually need as many, it isn't best practice to use "too" much (whatever is "too much" in your case).
