Hi, there!
I'm curious about goals of multilisteners.
I inserted new listener in config.
yes, it works. But I can't detect from which listener connection comes from.
What is the goal of multilisteners?

That you can have support for multiple network devices on the server which for larger scale servers is very common that you are not connected to a single interface only (as gbit gets overloaded rather fast so you have 2-3 gbit)
Another reason is that you might have a cluster of servers in which case oyu need to listen basing on the local LAN IP and the external one (not sure if multi config is required here)0 -
it's also useful if your application needs to run on multiple ports for some reason.
There is a getter for the local port in photon, this is a good indicator to determine the used listener.0 -
Thank you guys for quick replay.
It is very good news0
