Parameters

host

The value represents a DNS computer name, e.g. "domain.com", "example.microsoft.com", or "135.5.33.19". Any string can be passed to this parameter (i.e. will not cause System.ArgumentException), but not all values make sense and will work when an operation using them is attempted. Under normal conditions, host names are not empty, and they do not contain specific disallowed characters (",~:!@#$%^&'(){} ").

The value of this parameter can be null (Nothing in Visual Basic).

port

authenticationType

The value of this parameter can be null (Nothing in Visual Basic).
