This property is read/write.

Syntax

HRESULT get_RemoteAddresses(
  BSTR *remoteAddrs
);

Parameters

remoteAddrs

Return value

None

Remarks

The remoteAddrs parameter consists of one or more comma-delimited tokens specifying the remote addresses from which the application can listen for traffic. The default value is "*".

Valid tokens:

  • "*": any remote address; if present, it must be the only token.
  • "LocalSubnet": not case-sensitive; specifying more than once has no effect.
  • subnet: may be specified using either subnet mask or network prefix notation. If neither a subnet mask nor a network prefix is specified, the subnet mask defaults to 255.255.255.255. Examples of valid subnets: 10.0.0.2/255.0.0.0 10.0.0.2/8 10.0.0.2
  • Windows Vista: A valid IPv6 address.
  • Windows Vista: An IPv4 address range in the format "start address - end address."
  • Windows Vista: An IPv6 address range in the format "start address - end address."
For a predefined address range, use the Scope property.
