# networkEndpoint

An object that describes a local-network device.

```
var networkEndpoint: NWEndpoint? { get set }
```

## Discussion

For the discovery of local-network devices, the extension sets the value of this property to the <doc://com.apple.documentation/documentation/Network/NWBrowser/Result/endpoint> of an <doc://com.apple.documentation/documentation/Network/NWBrowser/Result>. When a search over the local network succeeds, the browser passes the newly discovered device into your extension’s <doc://com.apple.documentation/documentation/Network/NWBrowser/browseResultsChangedHandler>.
