Abstract
Method and device for using or dropping erroneous packets, including the steps of: receiving, by a network adaptor, first and second packets having headers, payloads, error propagation fields, and error detection fields. The error propagation fields indicate reception errors while the error detection fields do not indicate reception errors. Determining that the first packet is addressed to a first application and dropping the first packet. And determining that the second packet is addressed to a second application and enabling an end-device coupled to the adaptor to use the erroneous data stored in the second payload.
