UDP Statistics
User Datagram Protocol (UDP) provides a datagram mode of packet-switched
communications. It uses IP as the underlying transport mechanism, providing
access to IP-like services. UDP packets are delivered just like IP packets –
connection-less datagrams that may be discarded before reaching their targets.
UDP is useful when TCP would be too complex, too slow, or just unnecessary.
