Description

The RemoteAddr property is a character vector that specifies the IP address of the remote computer.

RemoteAddr may only be specified by a client TCPSocket that is intended to make a connection with a server. Furthermore, it must be specified in the ⎕WC statement that creates the TCPSocket object and it may not subsequently be changed using ⎕WS.

You may use either RemoteAddr or RemoteAddrName to identify the remote computer. If you know its IP address, it is normally quicker to specify RemoteAddr. If you specify both properties, the value of RemoteAddrName will be ignored.

For a server TCPSocket, RemoteAddr is determined by the IP address of the connecting process and is a read-only property.
