| SendAsync | Sends a message to a listening client. |
| Start | Requests the start of the server's background message processing thread and returns immediately. There will be a short unpredictable delay between return from this method and when the server reaches a started state. The ServerStarted event will be raised when the server reaches a started state. After the server reaches the started state, the TxHandle and RxHandle prroperty values will be set with unique values that can be passed to a InProcessClient class to establish a connection with the server. |
| StartAsync | Requests the start of the server's background message processing thread and provides a way for the caller to await the server reaching the started state. |
| StopAsync | Requests the server processing to stop and provides a way for the caller to await the server traching the stopped state. |

Events| Name | Description | |
