It can be used for the server to send data to a client that requests
it when it logs in via TCP. It reduces the traffic on the link by
eliminating acks (and retries :-).

No, it is unidirectional from the server to the client. The client
maintains its TCP connection (mainly for keep alive packets) and can
send its data there as normal.
