Comment Steps, too many. (Score 1) 215
I'm sorry, I'm not up on UDP, but isn't there a step more than there needs to be?
Specifically, if Alice tried to contact Bob -- which she does -- then she would be waiting for a response, and her firewall would therefore be open to his response. But according to their diagram, Bob's response to this will be disgarded by Alice's firewall.
Am I confused, or is this just bad diagramming?
