Different computers use different conventions for ordering the bytes within multibyte integer values. Some computers put the most significant byte first (known as big-endian order) and others put the least-significant byte first (known as little-endian order). To work with computers that use different byte ordering, all integer values that are sent over the network are sent in network byte order which has the most significant byte first.
The method converts multibyte integer values that are stored on the host system from the byte order used by the host to the byte order used by the network.
Converts a short value from host byte order to network byte order.

is .
is not a valid IP address.
The static method creates an instance from an IP address expressed in dotted-quad notation for IPv4 and in colon-hexadecimal notation for IPv6.
The number of parts (each part is separated by a period) in determines how the IP address is constructed. A one part address is stored directly in the network address. A two part address, convenient for specifying a class A address, puts the leading part in the first byte and the trailing part in the right-most three bytes of the network address. A three part address, convenient for specifying a class B address, puts the first part in the first byte, the second part in the second byte, and the final part in the right-most two bytes of the network address. For example:
-
Number of parts and example
IPv4 address for IPAddress
-
1 -- "65536"
0.0.255.255
-
2 -- "20.2"

-
Link-local address. On a host with multiple interfaces connected to separate links, the same link-local address can be assigned to multiple interfaces. To eliminate this ambiguity, a scope identifier is used to specify the interface over which messages are exchanged.
Link-local addresses, identified by the Format Prefix (FP) FE80, are used by nodes when communicating with neighboring nodes on the same link.
-
Site-local addresses. A host can be connected to multiple sites. In this case, a scope identifier is used to indicate a specific site to communicate with.
Site-local addresses, identified by the Format Prefix (FP) FEC0, are used by nodes when communicating on private intranets.
The notation that is used to specify the with an address is Address%ScopeId. For example, FE80::5EFE:192.168.41.30%2.
Gets or sets the IPv6 address scope identifier.
