Understanding SMB2

SMB2 is a network file sharing protocol that allows computers to read and write files to a remote host over a network. This protocol is integral to networked environments, particularly in Windows networks, for sharing access to files, printers, and serial ports. SMB2 includes significant improvements over its predecessor, SMB1, such as reduced chattiness, increased scalability, and improved security features. However, the configuration and capabilities of SMB2 can vary, affecting both the security and performance of network operations.
