I have a socket application which I can use in local network, at home.
I can make them communicate for example from 192.168.x.x to 192.168.y.y ip addresses.
What should I do if I want to use the application over internet, from a remote machine, not local. For example which ip addresses should I use if my friend who lives another country wants to access my application.
On the server end, the easiest way is to bind to all available addresses by using
IPAddress.Anyas the address. You’ll need to give the client your public Internet address to connect to. If you’re being a NAT, it might involve looking at your router for the address (or using http://www.whatismyip.com/) and configuring it to route the traffic to your PC.
