CRC
Use of CRC to protect header and data
Resolution (mailing list – July 9, 2003)
(A) MUST implement CRC support
(B) CRC usage is all-or-nothing on header + data
Note: One vs. two CRC issue is still open
(C) CRC usage is bidirectional: both or neither
(D) CRC omission requires consent of both ends of connection – i.e., either end can force CRC usage
(E) CRC usage is OPTIONAL [but, c.f. (D)]
(E’) CRC usage is admin. config, not visible to protocols
