Best Method to Identify Socket Address from Packet

[Vikash Kathirvel]

For a TCP connection, given a packet, i need a way to get the address of the socket which sent the packet

Right now the best way i can think of is:

1. Extract TCP header from Packet
2. Get Source IP and Source Port from TCP header
3. Create a temporary InetSocketAddress object using the Source IP and Source Port
4. Use the ConvertTo function of the InetSocketAddress class to get the Address

Is there a better, more direct way of doing this?

Any help is appreciated, thanks.
