<p>Hi Felix,</p>
<p>I think that, if we even suggest that users have the choice of private checksums, we have to provide some guidance with regards to the processing of these checksums. Otherwise we'll wind up in the scenario which Cheol pointed out where the receiving entity
 assumes that it can process the private checksum, but the file fails validation and generates a "file checksum" failure, since the checksum is private. In my opinion, that isn't really the correct behavior, since a Unsupported Checksum Type fault would be
 more appropriate. <br>
</p>
<p><br>
</p>
<p>It doesn't have to be much, "the private checksum MAY be implemented." & "If the private checksum is implemented, the sending and receiving entities must ensure that an
<span>unambiguous</span> selection of checksum algorithms is ensured for a given file transfer. If this cannot be ensured, an Unsupported Checksum Type fault SHALL be generated". This also covers the interoperability testing: if the sending entity can support
 the selection of a private checksum while the receiving entity can't determine it, then it's compliant with the specification.
<br>
</p>
<p><br>
</p>
<p>Given that the filestore request does not contain the desired checksum type (and my suggestion to add it was simply a workaround to increasing the MIB complexity), the receiving entity will not know what checksum is in use until the initial metadata PDU,
 at which point we have to be able to <span>deterministically</span> process or reject it.</p>
<p><br>
</p>
<p>Thanks,</p>
<p>Jeremy<br>

<br>
<span style=" font-size:10pt;font-family:sans-serif">I wouldn't like to introduce too much change in the draft at the current stage.
</span><br>
<br>
<span style=" font-size:10pt;font-family:sans-serif">In general, I think:</span> <br>
<span style=" font-size:10pt;font-family:sans-serif">1) We could have checksum ID for private / experimental use but its use should be discouraged.</span>
<br>
<span style=" font-size:10pt;font-family:sans-serif">2) Implementations may or may not support private / experimental checksums (or be configurable). This could go to the MIB but does not have to (as for the other checksum ID). It's an implementation matter.</span>
<br>
<span style=" font-size:10pt;font-family:sans-serif">3) If an implementation chooses to support private / experimental checksums, it will try to apply a checksum which may either succeed or fail. Which exact checksum to apply is again an implementation matter,
 could be per source or generic or guessing based on some other information ...</span>
<br>
<span style=" font-size:10pt;font-family:sans-serif">4) If an implementation chooses not to support private / experimental checksums, it will raise the Unsupported Checksum Type fault.</span>
<br>
<br>
<span style=" font-size:10pt;font-family:sans-serif">For the interoperability testing, I am not sure how much of this has to be covered. As the private / experimental checksum is, well 'private/experimental', I don't think we have to test something for the
 standard interoperability. Dealing with unsupported checksums seems also more a 'local' entity issue and not so much required for interoperability testing.</span>

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-Bottom:0px"><span style=" font-size:12pt;font-family:Calibri">I can answer your questions about the Checksum registry: First, I'm not sure why the checksum ID's are non-sequential, since I'm not sure what the SANA website is
 sorting by, but if you click the "ChecksumID" column header, it should sort correctly.
</span></p>
<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-Bottom:0px"><span style=" font-size:12pt;font-family:Calibri">I would suggest that, in the scenario which you outlined, the MIB containing the supported checksums for a receiving entity should be updated via TC and/or the desired
 checksum should be sent during a filestore request, but that's a more impactful change. I am adverse to a one-to-one allocation of checksum ID's to agencies, since it ultimately negates the purpose of the checksum ID and complicates mission operations and
 cross support: a single receiving CFDP entity at a ground station can (and likely will) support multiple missions, some of which may be performed from different agencies, each of which may have their own checksumming capabilities and requirements. If a single
 checksum ID is allocated to each agency, the receiving entity will be unable to determine the "real" checksum in use, unless that data is conveyed via some out-of-band mechanism.
</span></p>
<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-Bottom:0px"><span style=" font-size:12pt;font-family:Calibri">Additionally, different files from a single mission may require different checksums, either due to bandwidth constraints, mission phase, and/or avionics capabilities,
 meaning that the receiving entity will have to be aware of the mapping between entities, sessions, and checksum configurations. This is further complicated by the rise of file-based operations and advanced FDIR systems: it may be possible for the sending entity
 to change checksum modes in the event of a failure, in order in order to reduce power utilization and/or computational complexity.
</span></p>
<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-Bottom:0px"><span style=" font-size:12pt;font-family:Calibri">What would be possible is to allocate a single checksum ID to be "MIB defined". If that ID is in use, then it's up to the sender/receiver to determine the checksum
 out-of-band, but I think that would require some changes to the blue book.</span></p>

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-Bottom:0px"><span style=" font-size:10pt;font-family:Arial">I like your idea. I am currently working on the modification of CFDP software from my side, and I love to perform the supplementary interoperability test when the updated
 ION and interoperability test plan are available.</span></p>

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-Bottom:0px"><span style=" font-size:10pt;font-family:Arial">I don¡¯t see many testing items are required for this supplementary testing. However as I sent it earlier to you there is a tricky issue with regard to handling condition
 code of ¡®Unsupported checksum type(1011)¡¯. In order to make that situation, the ¡®Unsupported checksum type¡¯ is generated, happen, a CFDP (sending) entity should be able to generate a checksum field by a checksum algorithm that the other CFDP (receiving) entity
 does not support. As there are not much choices in selection of checksum algorithms, it can be tricky because one CFDP entity may have to implement an unnecessary checksum algorithm that is even not consistent with CFDP Checksum Identifiers in SANA registry
 (</span><a href="https://sanaregistry.org/r/checksum_identifiers"><span style=" font-size:10pt;color:#0082bf;font-family:Arial"><u>https://sanaregistry.org/r/checksum_identifiers</u></span></a><span style=" font-size:10pt;font-family:Arial">).</span></p>
<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-Bottom:0px"><span style=" font-size:10pt;font-family:Arial">   * short question : why are the number of the checksum ID in the SANA not consistently sequential? E.g., 4,5,</span><span style=" font-size:10pt;color:red;font-family:Arial">(6?)</span><span style=" font-size:10pt;font-family:Arial">,7,</span><span style=" font-size:10pt;color:red;font-family:Arial">(8?)</span><span style=" font-size:10pt;font-family:Arial">,9,10,11,12,13,14,</span><span style=" font-size:10pt;color:red;font-family:Arial">6,8</span><span style=" font-size:10pt;font-family:Arial">,15.</span></p>

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-Bottom:0px"><span style=" font-size:10pt;font-family:Arial">After thinking about this issue, I like to propose an idea. Why don¡¯t we allocate a Checksum ID to each space agencies, e.g., KARI reserve 5 as a checksum ID for potential
 use. Then KARI can freely choose the checksum algorithm for checksum ID 5, e.g., just a copy of modular, CRC32 or whatever or in-house algorithm for sure. When KARI put the 5 at the checksum type field in Metadata PDU, with all the interoperability testing
 with space agencies, the ¡®Unsupported checksum type¡¯ condition code should be designated at the FIN PDU from a receiving CFDP entity since all space agencies except KARI doesn¡¯t have any reference for the checksum ID of 5. How do you think?</span></p>

 finalize the plan sometime in the next couple of weeks.  (Holidays in the U.S. will complicate this, but it should still be doable.)</span></p>
