Hello, my problem is, that like it is designed now my application needs a fixed IP address since I only use one single socket which does all the receiving and which is set up to some fixed IP/port for this. Those devices are set up as well in a way that all data they want to send me goes to this fixed IP/port. As you can surely imagine this fixed IP sheme is not really being liked in some IT organisation with several 100 PCs or so... So my idea was (and I just wanted to make sure I can't get stuck when trying it because time is pressing) to change it in a way that each of my sending sockets does the listening as well and the devices are configured to send the data they want to send me simply to the same IP/port where they get data from me (I've yet to check if this is possible).
