This property specifies the IP address (IP number in dotted internet format) or Domain Name of the remote host.

If this property is set to 255.255.255.255, the component broadcasts data on the local subnet.

If this property is set to a Domain Name, a DNS request is initiated and upon successful termination of the request, the property is set to the corresponding address. If the search is not successful, the component raises an exception.
