Definition

Occurs when the IP address of a network interface changes.

C#
public static event System.Net.NetworkInformation.NetworkAddressChangedEventHandler NetworkAddressChanged;
C#
[System.Runtime.Versioning.UnsupportedOSPlatform("illumos")]

public static event System.Net.NetworkInformation.NetworkAddressChangedEventHandler? NetworkAddressChanged;
C#
public static event System.Net.NetworkInformation.NetworkAddressChangedEventHandler? NetworkAddressChanged;

Examples

The following code example listens for address changes and displays the status of network interfaces when a NetworkAddressChanged event occurs.

C#
using System;
using System.Net;
using System.Net.NetworkInformation;

namespace Examples.Net.AddressChanges
{
    public class NetworkingExample
    {
        public static void Main()
        {
            NetworkChange.NetworkAddressChanged += new
            NetworkAddressChangedEventHandler(AddressChangedCallback);
            Console.WriteLine("Listening for address changes. Press any key to exit.");
            Console.ReadLine();
        }
        static void AddressChangedCallback(object sender, EventArgs e)
        {

            NetworkInterface[] adapters = NetworkInterface.GetAllNetworkInterfaces();
            foreach(NetworkInterface n in adapters)
            {
                Console.WriteLine("   {0} is {1}", n.Name, n.OperationalStatus);
            }
        }
    }
}

Remarks

The NetworkChange class raises NetworkAddressChanged events when the address of a network interface, also called a network card or adapter, changes.

To have a NetworkChange object call an event-handling method when a NetworkAddressChanged event occurs, you must associate the method with a NetworkAddressChangedEventHandler delegate, and add this delegate to this event.
