Given: The Frame Check Sequence (FCS) is a 32 CRC used for error detection.

The CRC is calculated over what?

Show Suggested Answer Hide Answer
Suggested Answer: D

Every Beacon frame must contain a DTIM is not a true statement concerning DTIMs. DTIM stands for Delivery Traffic Indication Message, and it is a subfield within the TIM (Traffic Indication Map) element in a Beacon frame. The DTIM indicates how many Beacon frames (including the current one) will appear before the next DTIM. For example, if the DTIM interval is set to 3, it means that every third Beacon frame will contain a DTIM. Buffered broadcast and multicast traffic will be transmitted following a DTIM, so that STAs in power save mode can wake up and receive them. The DTIM interval can also dictate when an STA will wake up to listen to Beacon frames, as some STAs may choose to only listen to Beacon frames that contain a DTIM .

Wait, so the FCS is like a security guard for the frame? Better make sure they're checking the whole thing, or else it's like leaving the front door open while you're out back sunbathing. *laughs*

I'm going with C. The whole frame needs to be protected from errors, not just the juicy bits. Although, I do wonder how they come up with these question options sometimes. *rolls eyes*

I'm not sure, but I think C makes the most sense for error detection.

Yeah, I agree. It's important to detect errors in all parts of the frame.

I think C is the correct answer too. We need to protect the entire frame.

D has to be the correct answer. The PHY and MAC headers are the important parts, right? Who cares about the frame body anyway? *chuckles*

Hmm, I'm not sure. I thought the CRC was just for the frame body, but now I'm second-guessing myself. I better review the material on error detection.

I think the answer is C. The CRC should be calculated over the entire frame, including the PHY header, MAC header, and frame body.

Yes, it's important to include all headers and the frame body in the CRC calculation.

But wouldn't including PHY Header in the CRC calculation provide more accurate error detection?

I believe it's calculated over Mac Header and Frame Body only.
