```csharp
public static ISiloBuilder ConfigureEndpoints(this ISiloBuilder builder, IPAddress advertisedIP, int siloPort, int gatewayPort, bool listenOnAnyHostAddress = false)
```

Configure endpoints for the silo.

### Parameters

- `builder` (`ISiloBuilder`): The host builder to configure.
- `advertisedIP` (`IPAddress`): The IP address to be advertised in membership tables
- `siloPort` (`int`): The port this silo uses for silo-to-silo communication.
- `gatewayPort` (`int`): The port this silo uses for client-to-silo (gateway) communication. Specify 0 to disable gateway functionality.
- `listenOnAnyHostAddress` (`bool`): Set to true to listen on all IP addresses of the host instead of just the advertiseIP.
