Using udp event provider with multiple sites projects

Assistance Required with UdpMulticastEventProvider for 3-Site Optimizely Project

Hi Stefan,

First, I’d like to express our appreciation for all your hard work and support in creating and maintaining this provider. We’re currently using the UdpMulticastEventProvider in our project and encountering a challenge due to our setup with a 3-site Optimizely configuration.

We're seeing the following error:
System.Net.Sockets.SocketException (10048): Only one usage of each socket address (protocol/network address/port) is normally permitted.

It seems to be a socket address conflict, and we’re wondering if there are any recommended approaches to resolve this, particularly in a multi-site environment like ours. Any advice or workaround would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you for your time and assistance!

Best regards

I am guessing that you are running the 3 sites as 3 different sites in the IIS, but using the same files, hence same configuration. If that is the case, each site will run in it's own process so each process will try to listen on the same socket. work-around might be to add different configuration for each site.

Yes i Solved the problem with having different configurations for each site Like This using unicast provider:
On server01:
For Site1:

"UdpUnicastEventProvider": {
"BindHost": "0.0.0.0",
"Port": 6000,
"Endpoints": [
{ "Host": "server02", "Port": 6000 }
]
}

On server01:
For Site2:

"UdpUnicastEventProvider": {
"BindHost": "0.0.0.0",
"Port": 6001,
"Endpoints": [
{ "Host": "server02", "Port": 6001 }
]
}

On server01:
For Site3:

"UdpUnicastEventProvider": {
"BindHost": "0.0.0.0",
"Port": 6002,
"Endpoints": [
{ "Host": "server02", "Port": 6002 }
