Newsgroups: comp.protocols.tcp-ip Path: utzoo!utgpu!cunews!hobbit.gandalf.ca!ez From: ez@mentor.gandalf.ca (Eugene Zywicki) Subject: error detection information requested Message-ID: <1991Apr24.180339.18207@hobbit.gandalf.ca> Sender: ez@hobbit.gandalf.ca (Eugene Zywicki) Organization: Gandalf Data Ltd., Nepean, Ontario Date: Wed, 24 Apr 1991 18:03:39 GMT Lines: 22 Although my request is not directly related to this group, I expect that there are readers out there who can help me. I am looking for good reference materials/books that discuss error detection techniques in high speed communications systems. Specifically I am looking for hardware implementations along with the kind of error coverage you get. For instance, what error coverage do you get from the checksum used in TCP and IP? I am already familiar with CRC-16 and 32, so please save bandwidth on those two. You can e-mail me directly. Thanks in advance, -- Eugene E. Zywicki CAnet: ez@gandalf.ca Gandalf Data Ltd.
