UDP is now supported in 4D Internet Commands 11!

This essentially means that the data will get to its destination, but there is not a verification mechanism, error correcting or data recovery for lost data that is sent. It is a one-way transfer of data, the machine that sends it has NO way to know if it was actually received.

4D Internet Commands 11 adds the following new UDP commands:
