UDP (User Datagram Protocol) is a core member of the Internet Protocol Suite. It is a simple, connectionless Internet protocol that offers a minimal set of features. Given its design, consider the following statements to determine which one is false:
a) UDP guarantees delivery of packets.
b) UDP is faster than TCP because it does not establish a connection before sending data.
c) UDP is suitable for applications that need fast, efficient transmission, such as games.
d) UDP does not provide error correction.
The false statement with respect to UDP is:
a) UDP guarantees delivery of packets.
Explanation: UDP does not guarantee packet delivery because it does not implement error checking or correction mechanisms and does not establish a connection before sending data. It sends packets (datagrams) to the recipient without ensuring they are received, making it unreliable in terms of delivery assurance but faster and more efficient for certain applications that can tolerate some loss of data.
