Hi, I am quite confused on how to use a printer server from an embedded Linux device. Using Wireshark, I can see, that printer servers in common tends to repeatly broadcast messages containing NetBios / CIFS information which by Wireshark is read as “Microsoft Windows Browser Protocol”. In this section there is a value stating the server type – print server etc.
Now my first challenge is to grap the information form the broadcast message, in principle only that it is a print server, and its IP address. One of the issues is, that these protocols (SMB / CIFS) are not described in e.g. RFC – where to read on how to dissect the Ethernet diagram? Thanks in advance. Best regards OD
