User Datagram Protocol
----------------------
Introduction
------------
This User Datagram Protocol (UDP) is defined to make available a
datagram mode of packet-munication in the
environment of an interconnected set works. This
protocol assumes that the Protocol (IP) [1] is used as the
underlying protocol.
This protocol provides a procedure for application programs to send
messages to other programs with a minimum of protocol mechanism. The
protocol is transaction oriented, and delivery and duplicate protection
are not guaranteed. Applications requiring ordered reliable delivery of
streams of data should use the Transmission Control Protocol (TCP) [2].
