Which protocol should be used for an audio streaming server, where some loss is acceptable?
A.
IP
B.
ICMP
C.
TCP
D.
UDP
Explanation:
Answer D is correct; UDP is used for high-speed applications that can handle some loss.Incorrect Answers and Explanations: A, B, and C: Answers A, B, and C are incorrect. IP is a carrier protocol, which would require a higher-layer protocol such as UDP to support an application. ICMP is a helper protocol, and does not carry application data. TCP is a reliable and slow protocol, not the best choice when speed is required, and loss is OK.
