I send data of size 750 bytes from client to server using UDP.

I use the below code to receive data



The data I receive is of size 2048 bytes. Original size of my data is 750 bytes. What will be padded to the remaining 1298 bytes?

From java api

Datagram packets are used to implement a connectionless packet delivery service. Each message is routed from one machine to another based solely on information contained within that packet. Multiple packets sent from one machine to another might be routed differently, and might arrive in any order. Packet delivery is not guaranteed.



Just send the amount of bytes that contains data.
