Explanation:
The User Datagram Protocol (UDP) is one of the core members of the Internet
Protocol Suite, the set of network protocols used for the Internet. With UDP, computer applications
can send messages, in this case referred to as datagrams, to other hosts on an Internet Protocol
(IP) network without requiring prior communications to set up special transmission channels or
data paths.
Compared to TCP, UDP is a simpler message-based connectionless protocol.
