EthernetFcsHeaderChecker

Package: inet.protocolelement.checksum

EthernetFcsHeaderChecker

simple module

C++ definition

Checks Ethernet FCS checksums inserted as headers in packets in order to verify data integrity. This module extends ChecksumHeaderChecker and specializes it to use the "ethernet-fcs" checksum type.

Extends

Name Type Description
ChecksumHeaderChecker simple module

Checks the checksum values in packet headers to verify data integrity. This module extends ChecksumCheckerBase and adds the ability to specify the position of the checksum header (front or back of the packet). It processes packets by popping the checksum header, checking if the checksum value matches the expected value based on the checksum mode, and filtering out packets with invalid checksums.

Parameters

Name Type Default value Description
displayStringTextFormat string "dropped %d/%p pk (%k/%l)"

Determines the text that is written on top of the submodule, supports displaying pars, watches, and module-specific information

backpressure bool false
checksumType string "ethernet-fcs"
headerPosition string "front"
