Remarks

This method is called only if you have implemented the IwodVPNNotify interface in your application and the wodVPN1.Notification property has received a reference to an instance of your implementation.

SocksBind notification method is only called when you created TCPSocksProxy channel, and local application wants to open port on remote wodVPN peer that services should connect to in order to be forwarded locally. When this notification is called, you will get information about this socks request so you can evaluate it and Allow (default value) if needed.

This notification informs you that request has been made. This doesn't yet necessarily mean that connection is established (it may still fail with an error), but in this case the appropriate notification will be called (such as UserDisconnected).

wodVPN cannot know the IP address of the interface actually used for listening on remote side. Typically, this will be same IP address of the interface where you got connected to him, but this doesn't have to be 100% correct information. So, in order for applications to receive correct IP address, you will need to fill up RemoteAddress argument. When doing so, please use IP address of the interface, not its hostname.
