now you start confusing me. datagram usually refers to UDP, while SSH generally only works over TCP, doesn't it? Also, you didn't mention DatagramChannel in your previous post. > I wish to register multiple channels(DatagramChannel).Each channel will be > bound to different virtual ip. Even more confusion. Every IP needs it's own connection, right? So, together with this from you last post... >> In my simulator each of my simulated device which is a java object has >> a channel which will register itself to the singleton selector .As such I >> can have many simulated devices each having a channel And all of them >> associated with the single selector. ... I still don't understand what you are trying to achieve. Maybe someone more familiar with SSHD needs to chime in.
