Reliable Server Pooling (RSerPool) is a computer architecture and protocol framework for the management and access to multiple coordinated servers or for reliable server pooling. The protocol allows us to bind geographically dispersed servers in a single pool. This protocol framework is made to reduce server redundancy and session fail over.
Wireshark’s Reliable Server Pooling (RSerPool):
To open Wireshark’s Reliable Server Pooling (RSerPool) statistics window, follow the steps below :
- Start the Wireshark by selecting the network we want to analyze or opening any previously saved captured file.
- Now go into the Wireshark and click on the Statistics → Reliable Server Pooling (RSerPool) menu or toolbar item.
The above screenshots display the different protocols of Reliable Server Pooling (RSerPool). Clicking on any of the options displays the statistic window of that protocol. The following are the protocols mentioned in the list:
ASAP Statistics:
ENRP Statistics:
RSerPool library also provides statistics for application protocol.
Component Status Protocol (CSP):
CalcApp Protocol:
Fractal Generator Protocol:
Ping-Pong Protocol:
Scripting Service Protocol (SSP):
With the help of these statistics, we can do the following:
- Observing the number of messages and bytes per message type.
- Percentage share of messages and bytes for each message type.
- The first and the last scene of each message type.
- The interval between the first and last seen of each message type.
- The rate of message and bytes per second.
