Answer 1

Tomcat is a server for HTTP requests running over TCP protocol. You'll need to implement your own UDP handler and, quite possibly, your own server.

A good starting point would be investigating into network servers implementation, like Apache Mina or my favorite Netty . BTW, the latter can be easily embedded into JBoss. That's how I'm running my UDP listener .
