4 or 6 is used. It receives one packet from an unspecified peer and may send one or more answer packets to that peer.
This mode is particularly useful with fork option where each arriving packet - from arbitrary peers - is handled by its own sub process.
This allows a behaviour similar to typical UDP based servers like ntpd or

There is a problem because the parent process would find the same packet
again if it calls select()/poll() before the client process reads the

To solve this problem we implement the following mechanism:
