UDP fragmention?

["Trustin Lee (이희승)"]

Hi,

In case of UDP, a packet is truncated or dropped if it is larger than a
certain size, depending on router configuration.  IPv4 routers truncate
and IPv6 routers drop IIRC.  That's why it is safe to send small packets
in UDP.

I think this information could be mentioned in the QOTM example.

HTH,
