Summary

Specifies the addressing schemes used by the Socket class.

Description

A AddressFamily member is specified to the Socket class constructors to identify the addressing scheme that the socket instance will use to resolve an address. For example, System.Net.Sockets.AddressFamily.InterNetwork indicates that an IP version 4 address is expected when a Socket instance connects to an endpoint.
