IP address and Port in NEFilterDataProvider

I am implementing Network Extension - NEFilterDataProvider.
checking whether we get IP address and port for the flow in handleNewFlow ?

how do we fetch the IP address & Port in this type of Network Extension (socket level ) ??

any pointer would help

Check to see if you are getting the local or remote endpoints on the NEFilterSocketFlow?

Code Block swift
guard let socketFlow = flow as? NEFilterSocketFlow,
		let remoteEndpoint = socketFlow.remoteEndpoint as? NWHostEndpoint,
		let localEndpoint = socketFlow.localEndpoint as? NWHostEndpoint else {
				return .allow()
}


Otherwise, check the incoming NEFilterFlow directly in handleNewFlow; There should be a lot of information on here.
