When the local host receives a UDP packet from a remote host, it queues the packet and sends it over the serial link. The local host remembers the UDP session while there is still data to send from the serial link. If further packets are received for the same session, they are queued behind the already queued packet. After all the queued data has been sent over the serial link, the session is removed from the system. An associated UDP remote host for the serial link must be configured to have serial data sent back to the remote host from the serial port.
When a packet is received from the serial link based on end-of-packet (EOP) requirements, the data is copied and sent in a UDP packet to each configured remote host.
