CONFIGURING THE SWITCH

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.
