How does Ethernet handle error detection?

Each Ethernet frame contains a trailer with a cyclic redundancy check (CRC) of the frame contents. After reception of a frame, the receiving node creates a CRC from the bits in the frame to compare to the CRC value in the frame trailer. If these two CRC calculations match, the frame can be trusted as being received without error. The trusted frame will then be processed. A frame received with bad, nonmatching CRC's will be discarded.


What are the Advantages and disadvantages of cyclic redundancy check?

Advantages: CRC is simple to implement in binary hardware, Mathematical analysis of CRC is very simple, and it is good at detecting common errors caused by noise in transmission. Disadvantages: CRC is not suitable for protecting against intentional alteration of data, and overflow of data is possible in CRC.


Crc codes are commonly used in what networking protocol?

Ethernet


Which OSI layer the CRC computation is performed?

The Data Link Layer


Data link protocols almost always put the CRC in a trailer rather than in a header Why?

Oh, dude, it's like putting the cherry on top of a sundae, you know? The CRC in the trailer is like the dessert at the end of a meal - it's there to make sure everything that came before it is legit. Plus, if you put it in the header, it's like trying to eat your dessert before your main course - just doesn't make sense, man. So, they stick it in the trailer to keep things in order and make sure all the data is good to go.

What is the full form of CRC?

CRC: Cyclical Redundancy CheckA term CRC is used in datalink protocols often used in transmission ..The CRC is computed while the packet is being transmitted and then incorporated in a trailer. Similarly, the receiver computes the CRC and compares it with the transmitted one. From both points of view, it is better to have the CRC in a trailer

Why is the crc important?

A CRC is used to check for integrity of some information, for example, a data packet. The CRC is calculated, according to some formula, from the remaining bytes in the packet, before sending the packet. The receiving end recalculates the CRC; if any of the bytes have become corrupted (say, through electrical noise during the transmission), the CRC will no longer match, and the receiver knows that the packet has been damaged.
