UDP

UDP
User Datagram Protocol) - protocoll used to send data packets over
non-secure communication lines without a connection. This means that
successful transmission is dependent on the application and is therefore
not always guaranteed. UDP itself does not verify whether data has been
transmitted successfully. When a UDP packet is sent, the sender cannot
assume that the packet will indeed arrive at the recipient. This particular
protocol needs only a small amount of additional information, and results
in a better data throughput rate in a well-functioning network, e. g., on a
LAN. UDP is used by DNS servers, for example.
