 User Datagram Protocol (UDP)
The User Datagram Protocol (UDP) is a connectionless Transport (host-to-host) layer protocol.
UDP is preferred over TCP when high performance or low network overhead is more critical than reliable delivery.
UDP is the Transport layer protocol used with the

 UDP Protocol. Description and Packet Format
User Datagram Protocol is utilized to send data that doesn't necessarily need to be very reliable.
UDP is a simple to implement protocol because it does not require to keep track of every packet sent or received and it does not need to initiate or end a transmission.
The UDP packet is encapsulated in an IP packet which in turn is encapsulated in a PPP packet.

 User Datagram Protocol - Introduction to TCP/IP - Developer Fusion, the UK developer community - VB, ASP, C#, .NET, PHP and XML tutorials & source code
UDP is sometimes referred to as an unreliable protocol because when a program sends a UDP datagram over the network, there is no way for it to know that it actually arrived at it's destination.
User Datagram Protocol - Introduction to TCP/IP - Developer Fusion, the UK developer community - VB, ASP, C#,.NET, PHP and XML tutorials and source code
Unlike TCP, the User Datagram Protocol (UDP) does not present data as a stream of bytes, nor does it require that you establish a connection with another program in order to exchange information.

 Reliable User Datagram Protocol - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
In computer networking, the Reliable User Datagram Protocol (RUDP) is a transport layer protocol designed at Bell Labs for the Plan 9 operating system.
It aims to provide a solution where UDP is too primitive because guaranteed-order packet delivery is desirable, but TCP adds too much complexity/overhead.
It extends UDP by adding the following additional features:

 [Appendix C] C.6 Transport Layer
The User Datagram Protocol gives application programs direct access to a datagram delivery service, like the delivery service that IP provides.
The two most important protocols in the Transport Layer are Transmission Control Protocol ( TCP) and User Datagram Protocol ( UDP).
(As noted before, "unreliable" merely means that there are no techniques in the protocol for verifying that the data reached the other end of the network correctly.) Within your computer, UDP will deliver data correctly.

 RFC 1240 (rfc1240) - OSI connectionless transport services on top of UDP:
[RFC768] Postel, J., "User Datagram Protocol", RFC 768, USC/Information Sciences Institute, September 1981.
Using the approach of RFC 1006, this memo specifies how to offer OSI connectionless transport service using the User Datagram Protocol (UDP) [RFC768] of the TCP/IP suite.
It is observed that the connection setup and tear-down protocol exchanges and complex connection-oriented protocol machines become unnecessary overheads for a simple request/response exchange between a client application and a server application, especially in reliable communications environments such as LAN and ISDN.

 A Famous Greeting
The price the user pays for the lower overhead of datagram communications is exactly the lower reliability; it is often necessary for user-level protocols that use datagram communications to add their own reliability features on top of the basic communications.
This is a duplex, reliable, sequenced byte-stream protocol, again layered on top of IP, and also providing the notion of ports.
It is meant to be the basis for implementing and experimenting with transport-level protocols.(1) In the most general case, the sender has to supply the encapsulating header bytes in front of the packet and the receiver has to strip the additional bytes from the message.

 [Appendix C] C.6 Transport Layer
The two most important protocols in the Transport Layer are Transmission Control Protocol (TCP) and User Datagram Protocol (UDP).
Applications that require the transport protocol to provide reliable data delivery use TCP because it verifies that data is delivered across the network accurately and in the proper sequence.
Both protocols deliver data between the Application Layer and the Internet Layer.

 Transport layer - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
(The datagram-type transport, User Datagram Protocol (UDP), provides neither error recovery, nor flow control, leaving these to the application.) The purpose of the Transport layer is to provide transparent transfer of data between end users, thus relieving the upper layers from any concern with providing reliable and cost-effective data transfer.
In computing and telecommunications, the transport layer is layer four of the seven layer OSI model.
The Transport layer uses this simplest set of options to implement whatever combinations of options are actually desired.

 Protocol Engineering Lab - POC
The Stream Control Transmission Protocol (SCTP) is a new transport protocol, existing at an equivalent level as UDP (User Datagram Protocol) and TCP (Transmission Control Protocol), which currently provide transport layer functions to all of the main Internet applications.
As with TCP, SCTP provides a reliable transport service, ensuring that data is delievered from to the receiver without error and in the same sequence as transmitted.
Two versions of POC have been proposed: reliable, which requires that all transmitted objects are eventually delivered, and unreliable, which permits the service to lose a subset of the objects.

In many cases, the User Datagram Protocol (UDP) may be used in place of TCP when just application multiplexing services are required.
Transmission Control Protocol (TCP) is a connection-oriented, reliable delivery byte-stream transport layer protocol currently documented in IETF RFC 793 [1] (http://www.ietf.org/rfc/rfc793.txt).
However, TCP is not appropriate for many applications, and newer transport layer protocols are being designed and deployed to address some of the inherent weaknesses.

 The Appletalk Protocol - Final Project CS337 - Chris Ashworth
The main function of the LAP Manager is to act as a switching mechanism that connects the AppleTalk link-access protocol for the link type that the user selects to both the higher-level AppleTalk protocols and the lower-level hardware device driver for that data link.
Although the AppleTalk protocol stack includes protocols that provide connection-oriented services, these protocols are built on top of the lower level datagram service.
Higher-level protocols that use the services of DDP provide for reliable delivery of data.

 SIGTRAN - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
SIGTRAN is the name given to an IETF working group that produced specifications for a family of protocols that provide reliable datagram service and user layer adaptations for SS7 and ISDN communications protocols.
The SIGTRAN group was significantly influenced by telecommunications engineers intent on using the new protocols for adapting VoIP networks to the PSTN with special regard to signaling applications.
The most significant protocol defined by the SIGTRAN group was the Stream Control Transmission Protocol (SCTP) which uses the Internet Protocol (IP) as its transport protocol.

RDP (Reliable Data Protocol, but not the one specified in RFC 908, a Check Point proprietary one) is used by FireWall-1 on top of the User Datagram Protocol (UDP) to establish encrypted sessions.
By adding a faked RDP header to normal UDP traffic, any content can be passed to port 259 on any remote host on either side of the firewall.
Under some conditions, packets with RDP headers could be constructed which would be allowed across a VPN-1/FireWall-1 gateway without being explicitly allowed by the rule base.
