I don't think this has anything to do with tproxy.

Each and every bind requires a free port -- so the 100000 iterations
you're doing in your test will *never* gonna work.

Furthermore, automatically selected ports are selected from a limited
subset of ports, which is tunable with a sysctl setting.

As you can see, the default setting for the local port range is 32768 -
61000, so I'm fairly sure this is the limit you're reaching.

But again, I doubt this has anything to do with tproxy. I suggest
consulting a good introductory book on TCP/IP and Linux networking.
