Those should not be affected. However here's a short testprogram to test
them:

#!/usr/bin/python
import socket

s = socket.socket(socket.AF_INET, socket.SOCK_DGRAM, 0)
s.connect(('127.0.0.1', 514))
s.send('')

Of course you can change the destination address in the script.

I'd appreciate if you could report back on your findings. Thanks in
advance.
