Remarks

An instance of the IAuthorizeRemotingConnection interface is passed to TcpServerChannel(IDictionary, IServerChannelSinkProvider, IAuthorizeRemotingConnection). It provides a single point of authorization for all incoming connections on a TcpServerChannel. It allows for the authorization of the caller before any incoming messages are deserialized to minimize the security threat from untrusted sources.
