    <p>This module contains the public interface to the UDP/IP version
      transport protocol for Megaco/H.248.</p>

        <p>This function is used for starting the UDP/IP transport service.
          Use exit(TransportRef, Reason) to stop the transport service.</p>

      <desc>
        <p>This function is used to open an UDP/IP socket.</p>
        <p>The <c><![CDATA[module]]></c> option makes it possible for the user to provide
          their own callback module. The functions <c><![CDATA[receive_message/4]]></c> or
          <c><![CDATA[process_received_message/4]]></c> of this module is called when a new 
          message is received (which one depends on the size of the message; 
          small - receive_message, large - process_received_message). 
          Default value is <em>megaco</em>.</p>
