How can I connect multiple devices to my server with TCP / IP protocol?

Question

I need to write a program that allows many devices to connect to my server at the same time and communicate with the TCP / IP protocol.

The devices will send their imei numbers first, and if I have this imei number in my database, I will connect that client to the server.

Then I have to send and receive information to the appropriate clients using that imei number.

But I do not know how to do it. Can you help me with what I need to do?

Hi @Alcin ,
You can read these documents to help you.
WCF uses a Windows service called the Net.TCP Port Sharing Service to facilitate the sharing of TCP ports across multiple processes.

The WCF TCP transport is optimized for scenarios where WCF is used at both ends of the communication.

Queues and reliable sessions are WCF features that enable reliable messaging.
