The default for basic mode is no fcs. And as soon as an application wants to use ERTM we just make it to specific the FCS option. That being CRC16 or no FCS. And of course the getsockopt() call will return whatever we ended up configuring.

There is none. I got confused. Too many emails at the same time. Regards Marcel
