You can identify a TCP connection by as a
sourceip:sourceport/destip:destport set. You can only have one
connection with a particular combination of source and destination IPs
and ports. You can have an effectively infinite number of connections
to the same destination port at a destination IP. (roughly four
billion times sixty-five thousand, but you'll hit resource limits on
the server machine long before you approach that kind of theoretical
number)
Typically, multiple connections are allowed by changing the source
port for each connection. I can have twenty concurrent SSH connections
to the same destination box, and the only problem I'll have is keeping
track of all my SSH clients.
