+<!-- endsemconv -->

 For client-side spans `net.peer.port` is required if the connection is IP-based and the port is available (it describes the server port they are connecting to).
 For server-side spans `net.peer.port` is optional (it describes the port the client is connecting from).
 Furthermore, setting [net.transport][] is required for non-IP connection like named pipe bindings.
