What does phrase "Reuse of local addresses is supported" mean?
In The Single UNIX Specification, Version 2 http://www.opengroup.org/onlinepubs/007908799/xns/syssocket.h.html claims that the param value of SO_REUSEADDR in setsockopt means: "Reuse of local addresses is supported".
Can some clarify me that phrase?
