Passing the UDP checksum recovery to application layer

doppelganger · February 2012

Hi,

My question..

If UDP checksum does not do error recovery why does not it send the error recovery to application layer instead of dropping them?

Thanks,

some UDP applications have built-in recovery for their applications.

Using TCP for recovery won't be needed.
