    ListenFree Directive

    + + + + + + + +
    Description:IP addresses and ports that the server +listens to. Doesn't require IP address to be up
    Syntax:ListenFree [IP-address:]portnumber [protocol]
    Context:server config
    Status:MPM
    Module:event, worker, prefork, mpm_winnt, mpm_netware, mpmt_os2
    Compatibility:This directive is currently available only in Red Hat Enterprise Linux
    +

    The ListenFree directive is + identical to the Listen directive. + The only difference is in the usage of the IP_FREEBIND socket + option, which is enabled by default with ListenFree. + If IP_FREEBIND is enabled, it allows httpd to bind to an IP + address that is nonlocal or does not (yet) exist. This allows httpd to + listen on a socket without requiring the underlying network interface + or the specified dynamic IP address to be up at the time when httpd + is trying to bind to it. +
