I did read your statement correctly.  

Which datalink protocols retransmit errored frames without the
knowledge of the host?  Are there some that do it by default?  Are there
some that don't do this by default but can be configured to do so?

What can be seen by my statement is that the host would re-transmit
unless 
there was a CRC problem on the serial link that the protocol corrected
on 
its own. Please read more carefully.
