Hey guys I have a problem with node and I hope you can help me. So the problem is that i have 9 network devices that are all listening on the same port lets call it X these device all connect to the node JS server and sending strings to the server. Now my problem is that between the 9 devices and the nodeserver is a router that shall map the connections with different ports. I dont know much router and networking but what i know is that the router maps 9 different ports to X our port that the devices are using. Now i need node to write over the tcp protocoll via this matched ports to communicate with the devices. How can i do it. When i have these 9 clients connected to my server they all have different remotePorts and furthermore not the ones i would like them to have.
Is there any possibility to change the ports or to define them? Because I am not allowed to make all ports accessable. Heres my sample code for a little server that connects n clients: function server(port){ this.port = port; this.clients = new Array(); this.web; } server.prototype.listen = function(){ this.connection = require('net').createServer(); this.connection.listen(this.port, (function(){ console.log('server listening on ' + this.port); }).bind(this)); return this.connection.on('connection', this.addClient.bind(this)); }; server.prototype.addClient = function(socket){ this.clients.push(new client(socket, this)); }; function client(socket, server){ this.socket = socket; this.server = server; this.ip = socket.remoteAddress; this.port = socket.remotePort; this.socket.on('connect', (function(){ console.log('client:\nremoteAddress: ' + this.ip + '\nremotePort: ' + this.port); }).bind(this)); } tcp = new server(2222); tcp.listen(); Here is also a small sketch that i made: <https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/-jdoqFo0RIz4/UOgN9HcCVAI/AAAAAAAAAAU/QbYT4ylYvMU/s1600/node+problem.png> I hope this helps And Thank you -- Job Board: http://jobs.nodejs.org/ Posting guidelines: https://github.com/joyent/node/wiki/Mailing-List-Posting-Guidelines You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "nodejs" group.
