UDP Multiplexing and Demultiplexing
In the scenario below, the left and right clients communicate with a server using UDP sockets. The same socket at the server is used to communicate with both clients. The Python code used to create the sockets is shown in the figure. Consider the four transport-layer packets – A, B, C and D – shown in the figure below.
