Why 65,535 Isn’t the True Limit for TCP Connections on Linux Servers

The article explains that the 65,535 limit refers only to available port numbers, while actual TCP concurrency on Linux depends on the 4‑tuple identification, memory, file‑descriptor limits, and port reuse, allowing servers to handle far more connections than the port count suggests.
