Browsing Roles

Now that you understand what browsing itself is and what it can do for you, the next stage is to discuss the different browsing processes and the defined roles for browsing. The following are the browsing roles available. Figure 10.4 illustrates their placement and usage.

Master Browser. Collects and maintains the master list of available resources in its domain or workgroup, and the list of names, not resources, in other domains and workgroups. Distributes the browse list to backup browsers.
Backup Browser. Obtains its browse list from the Master Browser and passes this list to requesting clients.
Domain Master Browser. Fulfills the role of a Master Browser for its domain as well as coordinating and synchronizing the browse list from all other Master Browsers for the domains that reside on remote networks.
Potential Browser. A computer that could be a Master, Backup, or Domain Master Browser if needed, but currently does not fill a role nor hold a browse list.
Non-Browser. A computer that does not maintain a browse list. It may have been configured not to participate, or it may possibly be a client computer.
