'How to run a socket in parallel/thread/non blocking to main program in Python

I have a program that checks connectivity constantly with several endpoints. This program updates a list with the connection status.

I would like to run a socket server in parallel. The Idea is that I can remotely connect to the socket and read the status of the list of connections, or send other commands.

I was playing with socket examples, but this is blocking my main program. How can I create a parallel process that accepts connections to the socket and handles incoming data, without blocking the main program?
