While STM32 runs the LwIP protocol，How to implement 5 TCP connections? - tcp

Question

Now,I am working with STM32F107+lwip.The aim is making a gateway which is used to exchange datas between ETHERNET and CAN. The UDP server is tested well.And now I want to increase the TCP server function,which can be permitted to establish 5 TCP connections.
My questions:
1 TCP connnection is tested ok,How to implement 5 TCP connections?
First,PC send data to STM32 by TCP connections. STM32 receives it and send it to CAN.Then,when STM32 receives datas from CAN ,it will send the datas to PC by all the TCP connections.Now,my idea is that typedef a structure，when STM32 received the data from PC,it will record the pcb,remote ip and remote port. And receiving data from CAN ,STM32 will send it through the recording data.The result is the data will be sent slowly when STM32 invokes the "tcp_write()" and "tcp_output"frequently.
So I wonder the solutions to implement multiple TCP connections.

The tcp_server_accept() will contain the newly created connection. To this connection you can attach your context.
struct myclient_t
{
struct tcp_pcb *pcb;
/* all the variables uniqe for tracking this specific connection.. parser-state, receive/send buffers, statistics... */
int foo;
int bar;
};
static err_t tcp_server_accept(void *arg,struct tcp_pcb *pcb,err_t err)
{
err_t ret_err;
struct struct myclient_t *context = 0;
int i;
context = new_client();
if (!context )
{
return ERR_MEM;
}
context->pcb = pcb;
/* pass newly allocated es structure as argument to newpcb */
tcp_arg(newpcb, context); /* recv, sent, error and poll callbacks will have context their argument, which is uniqe for each connection */
/* initialize lwip tcp_recv callback function for newpcb */
tcp_recv(newpcb, tcp_server_recv
tcp_sent(newpcb, tcp_server_sent);
/* initialize lwip tcp_err callback function for newpcb */
tcp_err(newpcb, tcp_server_error);
/* initialize lwip tcp_poll callback function for newpcb */
tcp_poll(newpcb, tcp_server_poll, 1);
return ERR_OK;
}
