    I need to tunnel server packets to multiple subnets other than the one the server is located. To my understanding, a server proxy should be running per destination subnet.

    Is it possible to run multiple server proxies on a machine where there is single net interface?

    I thought each server proxy may have different port with -p option. But it seems the option affects both the incoming multicast and unicast packets.

    Thanks in advance and really appreciate the wonderful software.

    In a situation like this, each server proxy would need to be running on a separate host since they would all need to be listening on the same port to receive multicast traffic from the server.

    Thanks. I got it. But isn't it techniccally possible to have separate options for multicast listening port and unicast one?

    It is possible to have multiple UDP sockets listening on the same port, however the behavior differs from one OS to another, so it's not really reliable.
