ONC-RPC
In the field of software design, a remote procedure call (RPC) is a way for a computer program to cause a subroutine or procedure to execute in another address space, often on another computer on the same network. Remote Procedure Calls can be communicated over networks using Internet Protocols such as TCP/IP and UDP. These calls are among many low-level Internet protocols referred to as the “TCP/IP stack” which correspond directly with protocols at higher levels of standardization such as HTTP and SMTP. Consequently, RPCs are one form of internet service that can be used over both TCP and UDP; they allow programs running on different computers connected by an IP network, such as the Internet, to communicate with each other.
ONC-RPC Programs in Wireshark
The ONC-RPC protocol is a set of standards for remote procedure calls and allows computer programs to communicate over the network. This article will help you to understand ONC-RPC (ONC Remote Procedure Call) programs that transmit information through Wireshark.
