Parameters

localEP

The local IPEndPoint the socket will bind to. Use port 161 for most agent applications; port 162 for most manager applications.

acceptBroadcast

Specifies whether broadcast packets will be processed. Must be false when using an IPv4-mapped IPv6 dual mode socket.

dualMode

Specifies whether the socket should be a dual mode IPv6 socket. Only supported on Vista and newer operating systems.

If dual mode (simultaneous IPv4 and IPv6) socket operation is desired, use IPAddress.IPv6Any (for all IPv4 and IPv6 interfaces) or an IPv4-mapped IPv6 address for the localEP address, and true for the dualMode argument. An IPv4-mapped IPv6 address is the IPv4 address of a network interface preceded by "::ffff:". Ex: ::ffff:192.168.1.1. If an IPv4-mapped IPv6 address is used then acceptBroadcast must be false. To accept broadcast packets in dual mode, IPAddress.IPv6Any must be used.

Open and Receive are used when the current thread should sleep while waiting for the next packet. This technique is typically used in scripting applications. Use Close to release resources.
