Frame Check Sequence Value calculated from the bits in the frame (often, a CRC) and inserted into the FCS field of the packet by the sender If the FCS computed from the received packet does not match the one in the FCS field, a transmission error has occurred
a cooperative nationwide system of banks and associations providing credit to farmers and related businesses; originally capitalized by the federal government but now owned by its members and borrowers
Frame Check Sequence: Any mathematical formula which derives a numeric value based on the bit pattern of a transmitted block of information and uses that value at the receiving end to determine the existence of any transmission errors
In a bit-oriented protocol, a 16-bit field that contains transmission-error-checking information, usually appended at the end of a frame
The standard 16-bit cyclic redundancy check used for HDLC and frame relay frames The FCS detects bit errors occurring in the bits of the frame between the opening flag and the FCS, and is only effective in detecting errors in frames no larger than 4096 octets See also CRC (Cyclic Redundancy Check)
