Distributing the Browse List

The next important part of browsing is the distribution of the previously collected browse list. The extent of this distribution depends largely on the size of the network. A Master Browser broadcasts a message every so often to let the backup browsers know the Master Browser is still around. This is important because if the Master Browser does not do this the network holds an election process to elect a new Master Browser.

The Master Browser holds the list of network resources. It is the Backup Browser that contacts the Master Browser and copies the list from the Master Browser. Therefore, the Backup Browsers are the active component, intermittently contacting the passive Master Browser for the updated list.

There can often be complications with distributing this browse list. The following sections discuss some of these difficulties and the corresponding solutions, such as browsing over subnets, announcement period timings, and Domain Master Browser failure.
