Questions & Step-by-Step Solutions

Which protocol is used for error detection in TCP?
  • Step 1: Understand that TCP stands for Transmission Control Protocol, which is used for sending data over the internet.
  • Step 2: Learn that when TCP sends data, it needs to make sure that the data arrives correctly without any mistakes.
  • Step 3: Know that TCP uses a method called a Checksum to check for errors in the data.
  • Step 4: A Checksum is a value calculated from the data being sent. It helps to verify if the data has changed during transmission.
  • Step 5: When the data is received, TCP calculates the Checksum again and compares it to the original Checksum to see if they match.
  • Step 6: If the Checksum matches, the data is considered correct. If it doesn't match, TCP knows there was an error.
