Hi
I'm currently working on a project which requires socket programming using UDP. I need to send packets through my Hololens to trigger some actions. I had made my initial development using Unity.

Initially, I used Systems.Socket. Though It worked well in Unity, deployment on the hololens2 failed to work.
I tried the following code https://gist.github.com/Boellis/264406de13c226ec3e9fc4df6664d198.Converted this to UDP. Same as the above failed to work on deploying on the hololens2.

Would be a massive help if anyone could help or provide references to UDP development that would work on deployment to Hololens2.

    Hello, Welcome to Microsoft Q&A,

    UWP provides TCP and UDP socket classes for both client-server and peer-to-peer applications. You can refer to Sockets - UWP applications | Microsoft Learn to see how to use them.
