    Remarks

    This version is useful in some security scenarios, as the NetworkStream may be negotiated and verified before starting DICOM negoations. Note that both the NetworkStream and underlying Socket need to be specified, as some controls (such as timeout values) are only valid when applied to the socket. This method returns, after the connection has been established. If there is a protocol failure, then a trappable DicomException is thrown.

    Target Platforms: Windows 7, Windows Vista SP1 or later, Windows XP SP3, Windows Server 2008 (Server Core not supported), Windows Server 2008 R2 (Server Core supported with SP1 or later), Windows Server 2003 SP2
