Communication protocols such as TCP and UDP implement checksum fields, which help determine the integrity of data transmitted over a network. Because the most widespread use of Ethernet is to encapsulate TCP and UDP over IP datagrams, the MAC Checksum Offload Engine (COE) supports checksum calculation and insertion in the transmit path, and error detection in the receive path.
