CURLOPT_LOCALPORTRANGE(3) libcurl CURLOPT_LOCALPORTRANGE(3)
NAME
CURLOPT_LOCALPORTRANGE - number of additional local ports to try
SYNOPSIS
#include <curl/curl.h>
CURLcode curl_easy_setopt(CURL *handle, CURLOPT_LOCALPORTRANGE,
long range);
DESCRIPTION
Pass a long. The range argument is the number of attempts libcurl makes
to find a working local port number. It starts with the given CUR-
LOPT_LOCALPORT(3) and adds one to the number for each retry. Setting
this option to 1 or below makes libcurl only do one try for the exact
port number. Port numbers by nature are scarce resources that are busy
at times so setting this value to something too low might cause unnec-
essary connection setup failures.
DEFAULT
1
PROTOCOLS
All
EXAMPLE
CURL *curl = curl_easy_init();
if(curl) {
curl_easy_setopt(curl, CURLOPT_URL, "https://example.com/foo.bin");
curl_easy_setopt(curl, CURLOPT_LOCALPORT, 49152L);
/* and try 20 more ports following that */
curl_easy_setopt(curl, CURLOPT_LOCALPORTRANGE, 20L);
ret = curl_easy_perform(curl);
curl_easy_cleanup(curl);
}
AVAILABILITY
Added in 7.15.2
