The NetBIOS Datagram Program is a simple application designed to showcase the functionality of NetBIOS (Network Basic Input/Output System) in the context of datagram operations. NetBIOS is a communication protocol that allows applications on different computers to communicate over a local area network (LAN). Datagram operations involve sending and receiving data in a connectionless manner which makes it suitable for tasks such as broadcasting messages or targeted communication.
This application demonstrates the various datagram operations such as sending and receiving both directed and group datagrams as well as broadcast datagrams. The name service uses UDP Protocol on port 137. However, TCP/IP Protocol on port 137 can also be used in some cases.
