What this protocol for?
 
to generate your network neighberhoud view. It is mainly a broadcast protocol and generates a lot of broadcast traffic. You will see things like:
- host announcements
- browser elections
- and so no.... in your sniffer trace file

If you have a domain in native windows2000/2003 mode, it is not present and replaced by AD and DNS
if you need more technical info, let me know and i will post it for you,
regards,
Robert
