9.
how RVCM does on Error Recovery?
Ans. For each Certified Message sender assigns numbers serially for each out bound message
subject stream. When a certified listener receives a certified message that is not in

the certified listener sends a point-point-message to the certified sender requesting redelivery of the missed message. On receipt of the re-transmitted message the certified
listener acknowledges receipt.
