It worked by breaking up the data to be sent into 128-byte packets, adding a 3-byte header and 1-byte checksum footer, and sending the resulting 132-byte packets out in order. The receiving computer recalculated the checksum from the 128 bytes of data, and if it matched the checksum sent in the footer it sent back an ACK , and if it did not ...
A checksum is a small-sized block of data derived from another block of digital data for the purpose of detecting errors that may have been introduced during its transmission or storage. By themselves, checksums are often used to verify data integrity but are not relied upon to verify data authenticity .
The next block's header consists of 093f, broken down as 09 16 ⇒ off h =000 2,len−4=010 2;type=01 2: type 1 indicates a "copy with 1-byte offset": the length to copy works out to 010 2 +4=6 bytes, and the offset is an 11-bit integer whose top bits are off h and whose low bits are the next byte: 3f, so {off h}{3f 16}=00000111111 2 =63.
Byte order: With multi-byte CRCs, there can be confusion over whether the byte transmitted first (or stored in the lowest-addressed byte of memory) is the least-significant byte (LSB) or the most-significant byte (MSB). For example, some 16-bit CRC schemes swap the bytes of the check value.

The Fletcher checksum cannot distinguish between blocks of all 0 bits and blocks of all 1 bits. For example, if a 16-bit block in the data word changes from 0x0000 to 0xFFFF, the Fletcher-32 checksum remains the same. This also means a sequence of all 00 bytes has the same checksum as a sequence (of the same size) of all FF bytes.
Adler-32 is a checksum algorithm written by Mark Adler in 1995, [1] modifying Fletcher's checksum. Compared to a cyclic redundancy check of the same length, it trades reliability for speed. Adler-32 is more reliable than Fletcher-16 , and slightly less reliable than Fletcher-32 .
For computing the checksum UDP-Lite uses the same checksum algorithm used for UDP (and TCP). [1] Modern multimedia codecs, like G.718 and Adaptive Multi-Rate (AMR) for audio and H.264 and MPEG-4 for video, have resilience features already built into the syntax and structure of the stream. This allows the codec to (a) detect errors in the stream ...
