Description

Using UDP as protocol; when the client crashes, the server does not stop automatically (not even after a specific amount of time/packages).
It is also not possible to kill the execution with CTRL+c sometimes.

The server has been started with ctsTraffic.exe -listen:* -protocol:udp -bitspersecond:10000000000 -framerate:870000 -bufferdepth:1 -streamlength:60 -consoleverbosity:1

Research direction

Start by reproducing the issue with the reported ctsTraffic.exe UDP listener command. Trace the server's UDP receive and shutdown handling, including CTRL+C behavior. Done means the server stops after the client crashes or an appropriate timeout, and can be terminated reliably with CTRL+C.
