Function Write-InfluxUDP {
    <#
        .SYNOPSIS
            Send metrics to the Influx UDP listener (UDP must be enabled in influxdb.conf) for writing to Influx.

        .DESCRIPTION
            Use to write data in to an Influx database via UDP by providing a hashtable of tags and values.

        .PARAMETER InputObject
            A metric object (generated by one of the Get-*Metric cmdlets from this module) which can be provided as pipeline input.

        .PARAMETER Measure
            The name of the measure to be updated or created.

        .PARAMETER Tags
            A hashtable of tag names and values.

        .PARAMETER Metrics
            A hashtable of metric names and values.

        .PARAMETER IP
            IP address for InfluxDB UDP listener.
    
        .PARAMETER Port
            Port for InfluxDB UDP listener.

        .EXAMPLE
            Write-InfluxUDP -Measure WebServer -Tags @{Server='Host01'} -Metrics @{CPU=100; Memory=50} -IP 1.2.3.4 -Port 8089
            
            Description
            -----------
            This command will submit the provided tag and metric data for a measure called 'WebServer' via the endpoint 'udp://1.2.3.4:8089'
