# netconn_connect()

## Name

netconn_connect() -- Connect netconn to remote peer

## Synopsis

``err_t netconn_connect`(struct netconn *conn, struct ip_addr *remote_addr, u16_t remote_port);`

## Description

In case of UDP, sets the remote receiver as given by remote_addr and remote_port of UDP messages sent over the connection. For TCP, `netconn_connect()` opens a connection with the remote host.

Solely for UDP, it is possible to call `netconn_connect()` repeatedly to set a new remote destination to use for UDP packets, rather than having to create and delete netconns for each destination.
