UDPSock.recvfrom(buf) ??????? (buf) ???

[Diego Uribe Gamez]

Estoy mirando una conexión por Soket y no logro entender que hace el buf?
que es lo que cambia? el numero que se le asigna es que?

host = "localhost"

port = 21567

buf = 1024

data = ''

addr = (host, port)

UDPSock = socket(AF_INET, SOCK_DGRAM)


while (1):

  data, addr = UDPSock.recvfrom(buf)
