Udp Vs Tcp
PM #1 Why does UDP have a checksum? In my "noobiness", I've udp header format understood that UDP does not perform any error detection or notification. If it is an unreliable/connectionless protocol, what udp checksum error detection does it use the Checksum field for?

This is why it has a FCS. It checks the header and data of the

It provides error detection; not error recovery.

I would like to second that Just make sure you understand the difference between error recovery and error detection when thinking about these two terms. They are not the same. Error detection.. well, detects an error that occurs on the frame. FCS does the trick. To add on to Remyforbes, Error recovery uses sequencing to determine if there is an error in the frame sent, and if there is, it asks to be resent, which completes the "recovery" process. So remember: Error detection vs. Error recovery. Quote bmunroe Junior Member Join Date Nov 2007 Posts 16 Certifications CISSP, CCNA 03-31-200809:50 PM #5 Works for

Udp Protocol Example
User Datagram Protocol (UDP) is one of the core members of the Internet protocol suite. The protocol was designed udp packet size by David P. Reed in 1980 and formally defined in RFC 768. With UDP, computer applications can send messages, in this case referred to as datagrams, to other hosts on an Internet http://www.techexams.net/forums/ccna-ccent/30013-why-does-udp-have-checksum.html Protocol (IP) network. Prior communications are not required to set up transmission channels or data paths. UDP uses a simple connectionless transmission model with a minimum of protocol mechanism. UDP provides checksums for data integrity, and port numbers for addressing different functions at the source and destination of the datagram. It has no handshaking dialogues, and thus exposes the user's program to any unreliability https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User_Datagram_Protocol of the underlying network and so there is no guarantee of delivery, ordering, or duplicate protection. If error correction facilities are needed at the network interface level, an application may use the Transmission Control Protocol (TCP) or Stream Control Transmission Protocol (SCTP) which are designed for this purpose. UDP is suitable for purposes where error checking is either not necessary or is performed in the application, avoiding the overhead of such processing at the network interface level. Time-sensitive applications often use UDP because dropping packets is preferable to waiting for delayed packets, which may not be an option in a real-time system.[1] Contents 1 Attributes 2 Service ports 3 Packet structure 4 Checksum computation 4.1 IPv4 Pseudo Header 4.2 IPv6 Pseudo Header 5 Reliability and congestion control solutions 6 Applications 7 Comparison of UDP and TCP 8 See also 9 Notes and references 9.1 Notes 9.2 RFC references 10 External links Attributes[edit] UDP is a minimal message-oriented transport layer protocol that is documented in RFC 768.

This page will talk about what TCP and UDP are, and what the differences are between them. In the OSI model, TCP and UDP are "Transport Layer" Protocols.where TCP does udp do is connection oriented protocol and UDP is connectionless protocol. Connection-Oriented vs Connectionless[edit] TCP[edit] After going through the various layers of the Model, it’s time to have a look at the TCP protocol and to study its functionality. This section will help the reader to get to know about the concepts and characteristics of the TCP, and then gradually dive into the details of TCP like connection establishment/closing, communication in TCP and why the TCP protocol is called a reliable as well as an adaptive protocol. This section will end with a comparison between UDP and TCP followed by a nice exercise which would encourage readers to solve more and more problems. Before writing this section, the information has been studied from varied sources like TCP guide, RFC's, tanenbaum book and the class notes. What is TCP? In theory, a transport layer protocol could be a very simple software routine, but the TCP protocol cannot be called simple. Why use a transport layer which is as compl
