I am using the bind call to make sure i use a specific source port to send
the message.
Is there any other way that can be achieved ?
How can the sender know which port was used to send the packet , after the

It is necessary for the sender to know so that it can start listening on the
same port , (this is necessary for
hole punching to work)
