adb forward remote port to local machine

Question

Is there a way to forward the remote port i.e. port on the android device/emulator to the local machine to whi

Answer 1

Do you truly need to forward the port or are you just looking for a way to communicate using sockets from a program running on the android shell to your host machine? I was able to accomplish the latter by sending my message to the port of interest on "10.0.2.2", which is the loopback adapter of the host machine. See docs here.
