Full Version: UDP Socket Basic question

Hi everyone,

I am from Networking background, I have some basic questions about UDP SOCKET.
Let say we have two machines:SERVER and Client.

Client will send data via UDP SOCKET to Server.

What decides the maximum UDP data segment? I have seen where we specify the Number of bytes at a buffer location in the SEND() function.Does it determine the max UDP segment length?


Appreciated!!
I can't answer your question, but here's a package you should look at: https://pypi.org/project/nclib/
It uses both UDP and TCP sockets, and claims to be 'your friend'
It is funny because I was told they are very low level networking questions.

Thanks for your response.
