Hi, I'm quite a novice in TCP, just found that let say if there are A and B hosts within one network. And if A sends a UDP datagram to B first an ARP request is issued.
Why not just send the UDP datagram with Ethernet broadcast address to every host on network ? I see that it's a load issue but is it the only one ?

Thanks
Mario
