Remarks

The IPEndPoint class contains the host and local or remote port information needed by an application to connect to a service on a host. By combining the host's IP address and port number of a service, the IPEndPoint class forms a connection point to a service.

Thread Safety

Any public static (Shared in Visual Basic) members of this type are thread safe. Any instance members are not guaranteed to be thread safe.
