Could someone please explain what this means:
The frame check sequence is generated using the following standard
generator polynomial:
G(X) = X^32 + X^26 + X^23 + X^22 + X^16 + X^12 + X^11 + X^10 + X^8
+ X^7 + X^5 + X^4 + X^2 + X^1 + X^0.
The frame check sequence is one's complement of the sum (modulo 2) of
the following:
1. The remainder of X**k(X^31 + X^30 + ... + X^2 + X + 1)
divided (modulo 2) by G(X), where k is the number of bits
in the frame control field, destination and source addresses,
optional routing information field, and information field.
2. The remainder after multiplication by X^32 and then division
(modulo 2) by G(X) of the content (treated as a polynomial)
of the frame control field, destination and source addresses,
optional routing information field, and information field.
Any explaination especially with an example would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks in advance.
