CURLOPT_LOCALPORTRANGE: number of additional local ports to try
NAME
CURLOPT_LOCALPORTRANGE - number of additional local ports to trySYNOPSIS
#include <curl/curl.h>
CURLcode curl_easy_setopt(CURL *handle, CURLOPT_LOCALPORTRANGE,
DESCRIPTION
Pass a long. The range argument is the number of attempts libcurl will
make to find a working local port number. It starts with the given
CURLOPT_LOCALPORT(3) and adds one to the number for each retry. Setting
this option to 1 or below will make libcurl do only one try for the exact port
number. Port numbers by nature are scarce resources that will be busy at times
so setting this value to something too low might cause unnecessary connection
setup failures.
