Don't understand. You can already set the port on Server and Client.
Now on the Client you set the sender port, not the receiver, the client socket port open and assign it randomly,
you can see that in the logger.

Yeah, I think we can add that. But unless you have multiple network controllers, there is not much use of that.
Yes, it is my scenario, a I have to manage multiple controller.

This would certaintly break compatibility with older versions. I guess it's doable, but I wouldn't want to add that to the existing primitive. Maybe an alternative would be to add Network functionality directly into Ruby, but I'm not the right person to do that. Network communications is after 20years of software development still like voodoo to me
I hope for an Ruby socket management integrated,
but an new primitive client/server with ruby input could be enough.
