Server client connections are the most important topics nowadays. This will use as in the field of P2P communication and sometimes for Hacking (where a Hacker can hide from the client to still client data). Here I’m going to tell you that how to make a connection between client and serve.

client to server connection

In this session, I’m going to use SOCKET and show a demo, where a server can waiting for the client and as the client comes into his network he’ll attack/send messages to the client system.

I’m going to create 2 files one on the server-side and the client-side.

I want to create an IPv4 connection because I want to create a TCP socket and this TCP socket work with the IP address of IPV4.
To establish a connection I’m using socket.AF_INET tells the compiler to select the IPv4 version and socket.SOCK_STREAM and tells the compiler to use the TCP streams and pass these two variables in socket.socket() method that’ll return an object that helps in binding a connection that coming from the clients.

Binding a connection with IPv4 and TCP

As the client open his portal on the server-side it is always open to making a successful connection with the client after making the successful connection client should be able to get a encode message from the server.

server sending encoded message to the client

As the server sent the encoded message the client should be able to read it by decoding it.

This is part-1 of the client-server connection. you can get the code on GitHub.

HOW TO RUN: To run this code you first need to run the server.py file so that the server-side person is ready for the incoming connection from the client-side and as the client runs the client.py file the server will make a successful connection and send the encoded messages to the client. Thanks for reading this article.
