Abstract

in spite of the theoretical error detecting capability of its CRC, the actual degree of data integrity provided by HDLC is quite low.The paper gives a quantitative assessment of HDLC's deficiencies and of their reasons, paying particular attention to actual applications of the HDLC family of standards.Finally, we look at some strategies that have been suggested to allow the use of HDLC in the most demanding applications.
