  2. Internet checksum - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Internet_checksum

    The Internet checksum, [1] [2] also called the IPv4 header checksum is a checksum used in version 4 of the Internet Protocol (IPv4) to detect corruption in the header of IPv4 packets. It is carried in the IPv4 packet header , and represents the 16-bit result of the summation of the header words.

    The content of such spam may often vary in its details, which would render normal checksumming ineffective. By contrast, a "fuzzy checksum" reduces the body text to its characteristic minimum, then generates a checksum in the usual manner. This greatly increases the chances of slightly different spam emails producing the same checksum.

  4. List of IP protocol numbers - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_IP_protocol_numbers

    This is a list of the IP protocol numbers found in the field Protocol of the IPv4 header and the Next Header field of the IPv6 header. It is an identifier for the encapsulated protocol and determines the layout of the data that immediately follows the header. Both fields are eight bits wide.

    When UDP runs over IPv4, the checksum is computed using a pseudo header that contains some of the same information from the real IPv4 header. [7]: 2 The pseudo header is not the real IPv4 header used to send an IP packet, it is used only for the checksum calculation. UDP checksum computation is optional for IPv4.

    This convention makes sense when serial-port transmissions are CRC-checked in hardware, because some widespread serial-port transmission conventions transmit bytes least-significant bit first. 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 ...

    keyed hash function (prefix-MAC) BLAKE3: 256 bits keyed hash function (supplied IV) HMAC: KMAC: arbitrary based on Keccak MD6: 512 bits Merkle tree NLFSR: One-key MAC (OMAC; CMAC) PMAC (cryptography) Poly1305-AES: 128 bits nonce-based SipHash: 32, 64 or 128 bits non-collision-resistant PRF: HighwayHash [16] 64, 128 or 256 bits non-collision ...

    The message stream may be any length. After it has been shifted through the register, followed by 8 zeroes, the result in the register is the checksum. Checking received data with checksum. The received message is shifted through the same register as used in the generator, but the received checksum is attached to it instead of zeroes.

    This issue can also occur when monitoring packets being transmitted between virtual machines on the same host, where a virtual device driver may omit the checksum calculation (as an optimization), knowing that the checksum will be calculated later by the VM host kernel or its physical hardware.
