Hi I think its not possible. When you connect with the server you will be setting an IP & Port. So whenever you send msg to that server/client it will use the same IP & port.

Hi Thank you for reply I understood what you mentioned and is it possible or not to create seperate port for Inbound and another for Outbound. The purpose of this to avoid the timeout while process the message. There are multiple clients sends the message concurrently to avoid the breakage of ACK messages. thank you once again for reply.
