[erlang-questions] SO_REUSEPORT with UDP

[Rad Gruchalski]

Hi Pablo,  

I found a perfect explanation of the difference between SO_REUSEADDR and SO_REUSEPORT:
http://stackoverflow.com/a/14388707/56250
It goes a long way into explaining the implementation on different platforms and the differences between these two.
I might be wrong but I would imagine that reuseaddr means SO_REUSEADDR and I do not think Erlang does SO_REUSEPORT in any way. If I’m wrong, please, somebody correct me.










Kind regards,
