<H2>DESCRIPTION</H2><PRE>
<STRONG>OneC_sum</STRONG> is used to calculate the one's complement checksum needed for IP
network packets. A good document about the Internet Checksum is RFC-1071
(Computing the Internet checksum).
<STRONG>One_Csum</STRONG> expects three parameters:
<EM>prev</EM> The checksum of previous blocks of data that are to be included
in the checksum. The value of prev in first call to oneC_sum
should be 0.
<EM>data</EM> A pointer to the block of data. The data is interpreted as a
series of 16 bit numbers in network byte order, but an odd
number of bytes is also allowed.
<EM>size</EM> The size of the data in bytes.
