Good evening everyone, I have a question in my project and I need your help if possible. The question is:
- Checksum is used by various protocols on the Internet, but not at the one of TCP / IP layers. Explain.
I got confused while I'm searching about it, I search in some sites, and I found that all layers have their own checksum.asked , updated

0The IP and TCP layers both have checksums in IPv4, but only the TCP layer in IPv6. See the following Stack Exchange questions for more detail.
