More precisely, it sets up a connection uses that connection then terminates the
connection.
T-DATA This service is used to transfer data, it could provide uncertain service and
still, it is reliable.
T-EXPEDITED- This service is also used for transferring data, but it carries a limited
request also.
Packets don’t follow a fixed path that is the reason the packets received at
receiver end can be out of order. It uses packet switching for transmission of
data.
Most network hardware, the Internet Protocol (IP), and the User Datagram
Protocol (UDP) provides connection-less service.
Connection-less Transport services offer only one type of service to its upper
layer that is T-UNIT-DATA. It provides a single solitary data unit for all
transmission. Each unit contains all of the protocol control information
necessary for delivery but does not include provision for sequencing and flow
control.
