Correct answer: B. B and C only
Explanation
UDP stands for User Datagram Protocol, not 'Uniform Data Protocol', so statement A is false and B is true. UDP is a transport-layer protocol (it sits alongside TCP at the transport layer of the TCP/IP stack), so statement C is true and D is false. Hence only B and C are correct, making option (2) the answer.More Data Communication and Computer Networks questions
