Hi, I'm new to networking and still trying to figure out what many of the
protocols mean.  If anyone could tell me what the "BROWSER" protocol is, I'd
really appreciate it.  I've noticed that the information after the protocol
always gives the name (corresponding to the proper IP) and then lists
Workstation, Sever, Print Queue, NT Workstation, Potential Browswe, etc.
I've also noticed the packets are all 247 packets.  Can anyone tell me
what's going on here?

Thanks,

Pete
