Remarks

This method blocks until the operation is complete.

If the Ipv6Element.Enabled is set to true, the Aliases property of the IPHostEntry instance returned is not populated by this method and will always be empty.

To perform this operation synchronously, use the Resolve method.

Note

This member emits trace information when you enable network tracing in your application. For more information, see Network Tracing in the .NET Framework.
