Detailed Explanation:
• Option A: Incorrect. UDP (User Datagram Protocol) does not use SYN or ACK flags, as it is a connectionless protocol and does not establish a connection before data transfer. SYN and ACK flags are features of TCP (Transmission Control Protocol), which establishes connections using a three-way handshake. (Reference: HCIA-Datacom Training Material, Transport Layer Protocols)
• Option B: Incorrect. UDP is suitable for delay-sensitive traffic (such as video or voice) because of its low overhead. However, UDP does not have a sequence number field or support reassembly, as it does not guarantee packet order or reliability. (Reference: HCIA-Datacom Training Material, UDP Characteristics)
• Option C: Correct. TCP requires a three-way handshake to establish a connection and a four-way handshake to terminate it, involving SYN, ACK, FIN flags for reliability. (Reference: HCIA-Datacom Training Material, TCP Connection Establishment and Termination)
• Option D: Correct. The well-known port number range is defined as 0 to 1023, and these are reserved for widely used protocols such as HTTP, FTP, and DNS. (Reference: HCIA-Datacom Training Material, Port Numbering)
