The User Datagram Protocol (UDP) is probably the simplest in all
of TCP/IP. The UDP takes the application layer data passed to it,
packages the layer in a simplified message format, and sends it to
the IP for transmission. This handles the UDP sockets in a simple
way. The UDP socket only needs to be opened for communication. It
listens for incoming messages and sends outgoing messages on
request.
