Abstract

Validation of various portions of received data, including validating a cut-through checksum found in a received data packet. The cut-through checksum is based on data found in a packet header, and thus can be validated before the entire packet is received. This feature allows processing of the received data to begin before the entire packet has been received. Many embodiments will also receive a checksum that is based on the entire packet.
