Other Socket Operations
Java provides a few other entertaining socket operations, apart
from reading from (via getInputStream(), and
writing to (via getOutputStream()), the
connected socket:
getInetAddress()
- Returns the IP address of the system that this socket is
connected to.
getPort()
- Returns the port number that the socket is connected to on the
remote system.
getLocalPort()
- Returns the port number on the local system. For a client
socket, this will be the random (?) port number allocated when the
initial TCP connection was established.
