How can I know, what local port is used by Stream?

Question

Is it possible to specify explicitly local port that should be used by net.Stream, or to find out what local port is used for connection?

According to the documentation, local port cannot be specified:

stream.connect(port, host='127.0.0.1')

Answer 1

stream.connect(port, host='127.0.0.1')

listed the specified address with specified port.
