So on a machine namely C you can have max > 65535 outbound connections There can be simultaneous connections to one port. For example apache's httpd - it listens port 80, does that mean, it can serve only one connection? nope. Once connection is established, it's forwarded to another thread, that have connection id, and processes it. Don't know about outgoing connections, but i think, they also can be simultaneous.
