 TCP: The Transmission Control Protocol is one of the main protocols of the Internet
protocol suite. It originated in the initial network implementation in which it complemented
the Internet Protocol. Therefore, the entire suite is commonly referred to as TCP/IP.

 UDP: UDP (User Datagram Protocol) is an alternative communications protocol to

Transmission Control Protocol (TCP) used primarily for establishing low-latency and loss-
tolerating connections between applications on the internet.
 TLSv1.2: Transport Layer Security, and its now-deprecated predecessor, Secure Sockets
Layer, are cryptographic protocols designed to provide communications security over a
computer network. Several versions of the protocols find widespread use in applications
such as web browsing, email, instant messaging, and voice over IP.

 MDNS: In computer networking, the multicast DNS (mDNS) protocol resolves hostnames
to IP addresses within small networks that do not include a local name server.
... mDNS has also been implemented in Windows 10, initially limited to discovering
networked printers, later becoming capable of resolving hostnames as well.
 ARP: The address resolution protocol (arp) is a protocol used by the
Internet Protocol (IP) [RFC826], specifically IPv4, to map IP network addresses to the
hardware addresses used by a data link protocol. The protocol operates below the
network layer as a part of the interface between the OSI network and OSI link layer.

 UDP: UDP (User Datagram Protocol) is an alternative communications protocol to

Transmission Control Protocol (TCP) used primarily for establishing low-latency and loss-
tolerating connections between applications on the internet.
 NETBIOS: NetBIOS is an OSI Session Layer 5 Protocol and a service that allows
applications on computers to communicate with one another over a local area network
(LAN). It is a non-routable Protocol and NetBIOS stands for Network Basic Input/Output
System.

 MDNS: In computer networking, the multicast DNS (mDNS) protocol resolves hostnames
to IP addresses within small networks that do not include a local name server.
... mDNS has also been implemented in Windows 10, initially limited to discovering
networked printers, later becoming capable of resolving hostnames as well.
 LLMNR: The Link-Local Multicast Name Resolution (LLMNR) is a protocol based on the
Domain Name System (DNS) packet format that allows both IPv4 and IPv6 hosts to
perform name resolution for hosts on the same local link. It is included in Windows Vista,
Windows Server 2008, Windows 7, Windows 8 and Windows 10.

 SSDP: The Simple Service Discovery Protocol (SSDP) is a network protocol based on
the Internet protocol suite for advertisement and discovery of network services and
presence information. ... It was formally described in an Internet Engineering Task Force
(IETF) Internet Draft by Microsoft and Hewlett-Packard in 1999.
 USB URB: The messages are called URBs, which stands for USB request block. URBs
are sent by calling the usb_submit_urb method, struct urb *urb, int mem_flags). This is an
asynchronous call, and it returns immediately. The URB is put in a queue, and later, it
reaches a completion handler.

 USB MASS STORAGE: The USB mass storage device class (also known as USB MSC
or UMS) is a set of computing communications protocols defined by
the USB Implementers Forum that makes a USB device accessible to a host computing
device and enables file transfers between the host and the USB device.

o
 ICMP: ICMP (Internet Control Message Protocol) is an error-reporting protocol network
device like routers use to generate error messages to the source IP address when
network problems prevent delivery of IP packets.

 DNS: The Domain Name System is a hierarchical and decentralized naming system for
computers, services, or other resources connected to the Internet or a private network. It
associates various information with domain names assigned to each of the participating
entities
 IGMP: The Internet Group Management Protocol is a communications protocol used by
hosts and adjacent routers on IPv4 networks to establish multicast group memberships.
IGMP is an integral part of IP multicast

 DHCPv6: The Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) is a network

management protocol used on UDP/IP networks whereby a DHCP server dynamically
assigns an IP address and other network configuration parameters to each device on a
network so they can communicate with other IP networks.
 XML : Extensible Messaging and Presence Protocol (XMPP) is a communication
protocol for message-oriented middleware based on XML (Extensible Markup
Language). It enables the near-real-time exchange of structured yet extensible data
between any two or more network entities.

 EDP: EDP is a vendor proprietary protocol from Extreme Networks. It is used to send
information like system MAC, device name or VLAN information to neighboring Extreme
devices. It is also used to transport "higher level" protocols like EAPS and ESRP.

o
 LLDP: The Link Layer Discovery Protocol (LLDP) is a vendor-neutral link
layer protocol used by network devices for advertising their identity, capabilities, and
neighbors on a local area network based on IEEE 802 technology, principally wired
Ethernet.

 SMPP: The SMPP (Short Message Peer-to-Peer) protocol is an open, industry

standard protocol designed to provide a flexible data communications interface for the
transfer of short message data between External Short Message Entities (ESME),
Routing Entities (RE) and Message Centres (MC).

o
 BROWSER: The Browser dissector is (fully functional, partially functional, not existing, ...
whatever the current state is). Also add info of additional Wireshark features where
appropriate, like special statistics of this protocol.

 HTTP: HTTP means HyperText Transfer Protocol. HTTP is the underlying protocol used
by the World Wide Web and this protocol defines how messages are formatted and
transmitted, and what actions Web servers and browsers should take in response to
various commands.
 DHCP: The Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) is a network
management protocol used on UDP/IP networks whereby a DHCP server dynamically assigns
an IP address and other network configuration parameters to each device on a network so they
can communicate with other IP networks.

 TLSV1: Transport Layer Security, and its now-deprecated predecessor, Secure Sockets Layer, are
cryptographic protocols designed to provide communications security over a computer network.
Several versions of the protocols find widespread use in applications such as web browsing, email,
instant messaging, and voice over IP.
