Endpoints

You configure UDP endpoints just as you would with any other transport, with the following additional attributes:

host: the IP address of the server, such as www.mulesoft.com, localhost, or 127.0.0.1
port: the port number of the server.

For example:

<udp:inbound-endpoint host="localhost" port="61000" />

Message Payload

The default message payload of the UDP transport for incoming messages is a byte[] array.
