I think that sending and receiving on the same port is not an intended use of the UDP protocol, which was designed for throw and forget messaging.
how come? how does DNS (after all, a central service in the internet) work with this assumption?
UDP works fine with as a challenge/response system (less so as client/server, given that there is no notion of a "connection"), and for responses you need o be able to send messages somewhere.
for whatever reasons, many hardware manufacturers have the idea that sending/receiving on the *same* port is a good idea.
