Gets remote end point information for an active TCP connection.
...socket_object.RemoteEndPoint
Prerequisites
None
Parameters
None
Remarks
This property returns information about the opened end point for a TCP/IP connection. This information is especially useful after a listener accepts a connection. The returned object is of class IPEndPoint. The IPAddress and Port properties of the returned object contain information about the IP Address and Port of the remote client. If there is no active connection, the returned IPEndPoint object contains IPAddress "0.0.0.0" and Port 0.
Examples
Dim ep As New IPEndPoint("", 1234) ' Listen on port 1234
Dim rem_ep As IPEndPoint
Dim tl As New TcpListener(ep) ' Create listener object
Dim sock As Socket
tl.Start
sock = tl.AcceptSocket
rem_ep = sock.RemoteEndPoint
Console.Writeline("Remote IP = " & rem_ep.IPAddress)
Console.Writeline("Remote port = " & CStr(rem_ep.Port))
