Hyper-V socat connection string for VM

[mrvaghani]

I am trying to understand L205 which I think explains how the container is able to make a socket connection to the agent.

My goal is to create a VM using VMware workstation and make this connection from inside the VM. Since the network settings will be different, I would like to understand how I can achieve this with a VM instead of a docker container.

The project is awesome and very useful! :)

EDIT: To be a little specific regarding my question, I am trying to understand SOCKET-CONNECT:40:0:x0000x33332222x02000000x00000000.

From reading the documentation, I gathered the syntax is SOCKET-CONNECT:<domain>:<protocol>:<remote-address> but I am not sure I understand how the values are assigned to SOCKET-CONNECT command. I tried to convert x0000x33332222x02000000x00000000 from hex to int but it still doesn't make much sense. What am I missing?

If someone can add some clarification, it would be helpful.

This is obviously a question so if someone with the right permissions can assign the appropriate label, that would be very helpful.
