Question

Identify how modern network applications can handle multiple concurrent connections at the same time. 250 WORDS please

Answer 1

Answer)
In the modern network application, there are multiple connections being made to a server at the same time and thus the modern network applications should be capable enough to handle such many user connections. This can be done using ports which are the points using which the packets get transferred from the sender to the receiver and vice versa, and also using the IP address combined with ports.
For UDP, the multiple connections do not have any problem as they are stateless and thus when the multiple people send the messages even to the same port then the packets will come and do in any sequence possible and thus nobody is in a connected state.
While for TCP, the connection is there identified using the source port, destination port, source IP address and destination IP address. Thus when the machines connected to the same server same network port then there are separate connections which are being maintained on the server-side. Which means that the machines connect to the same port on the server and are differentiated mainly by using the ports and IP addresses and thus there is no ambiguity.
Thus we see that the modern network applications hosted on the server work and can handle the multiple concurrent connections.
