Remarks
If you are using a connection-oriented protocol such as TCP, the Connect method synchronously establishes a network connection between LocalEndPoint and the specified remote endpoint. If you are using a connectionless protocol, Connect establishes a default remote host. After you call Connect, you can send data to the remote device with the Send method, or receive data from the remote device with the Receive method.
If you are using a connectionless protocol such as UDP, you do not have to call Connect before sending and receiving data. You can use SendTo and ReceiveFrom to synchronously communicate with a remote host. If you do call Connect, any datagrams that arrive from an address other than the specified default will be discarded. If you want to set your default remote host to a broadcast address, you must first call the SetSocketOption method and set the socket option to SocketOptionName.Broadcast, or Connect will throw a SocketException. If you receive a SocketException, use the SocketException.ErrorCode property to obtain the specific error code. After you have obtained this code, refer to the Windows Sockets version 2 API error code documentation for a detailed description of the error.
The Connect method will block, unless you specifically set the Blocking property to false
prior to calling Connect. If you are using a connection-oriented protocol like TCP and you do disable blocking, Connect will throw a SocketException because it needs time to make the connection. Connectionless protocols will not throw an exception because they simply establish a default remote host. You can use SocketException.ErrorCode to obtain the specific error code. After you have obtained this code, refer to the Windows Sockets version 2 API error code documentation for a detailed description of the error. If the error returned WSAEWOULDBLOCK, the remote host connection has been initiated by a connection-oriented Socket, but has not yet completed successfully. Use the Poll method to determine when the Socket is finished connecting.
Note
If you are using a connection-oriented protocol and did not call Bind before calling Connect, the underlying service provider will assign the local network address and port number. If you are using a connectionless protocol, the service provider will not assign a local network address and port number until you complete a send or receive operation. If you want to change the default remote host, call Connect again with the desired endpoint.
Note
If the socket has been previously disconnected, then you cannot use this method to restore the connection. Use one of the asynchronous BeginConnect methods to reconnect. This is a limitation of the underlying provider.

Connect(IPAddress[], Int32)Establishes a connection to a remote host. The host is specified by an array of IP addresses and a port number.
public:
void Connect(cli::array <System::Net::IPAddress ^> ^ addresses, int port);
public void Connect(System.Net.IPAddress[] addresses, int port);
member this.Connect : System.Net.IPAddress[] * int -> unit
Public Sub Connect (addresses As IPAddress(), port As Integer)
Parameters
The IP addresses of the remote host.
The port number of the remote host.
ExceptionsThe port number is not valid.
An error occurred when attempting to access the socket.
The length of addresses
is zero.
The following code example connects to a remote endpoint and then verifies the connection.
// Synchronous connect using Dns.GetHostAddresses to
// resolve the host name.
public static void Connect2(string host, int port)
{
IPAddress[] IPs = Dns.GetHostAddresses(host);

SocketType.Stream,
ProtocolType.Tcp);
Console.WriteLine("Establishing Connection to {0}",
host);
s.Connect(IPs, port);
Console.WriteLine("Connection established");
}
Remarks
This method is typically used immediately after a call to GetHostAddresses, which can return multiple IP addresses for a single host. If you are using a connection-oriented protocol such as TCP, the Connect method synchronously establishes a network connection between LocalEndPoint and the specified remote endpoint. If you are using a connectionless protocol, Connect establishes a default remote host. After you call Connect you can send data to the remote device with the Send method, or receive data from the remote device with the Receive method.

Connect(String, Int32)Establishes a connection to a remote host. The host is specified by a host name and a port number.
public:
void Connect(System::String ^ host, int port);
public void Connect(string host, int port);
member this.Connect : string * int -> unit
Public Sub Connect (host As String, port As Integer)
Parameters

ExamplesThe following code example connects to a remote endpoint and then verifies the connection.
// Synchronous connect using host name (resolved by the
// Connect call.)
public static void Connect3(string host, int port)
{
Socket s = new Socket(AddressFamily.InterNetwork,

If IPv6 is enabled and the Connect(String, Int32) method is called to connect to a host that resolves to both IPv6 and IPv4 addresses, the connection to the IPv6 address will be attempted first before the IPv4 address. This may have the effect of delaying the time to establish the connection if the host is not listening on the IPv6 address.
Note
If you're using a connection-oriented protocol and did not call Bind before calling Connect, the underlying service provider will assign the local network address and port number. If you are using a connectionless protocol, the service provider will not assign a local network address and port number until you complete a send or receive operation. If you want to change the default remote host, call Connect again with the desired endpoint.
