Layered Service Protocol is another lesser used acronym for LSP and is often used interchangeably with Layered Service Provider. LSP is simply a DLL using Winsock APIs to place itself inside the communication stack. Once it is there, it can interact with the communication by reading, intercepting, and even modifying the data.
There are so many things that can be done with LSP. You can do anything from simply tracking bugs to redirecting winsock sockets. The sky is the limit with LSP.

It can be great to use the Winsock samples that are provided in the SDK\samples directory. However, for every plus there is a minus and the minus here is the potential errors that can arise. If you are having Winsock layered service provider issues, it MAY be related to the use of Winsock samples. Check out the free Winsock LSP resource page here on Komodia.com.

A feature that is supported on Windows Vista is Winsock tracing.  It may be enabled with retail binaries to trace socket events without a heavy overhead. The purpose for this addition to retail tracing to Winsock is in order to make better capabilities for developers available. Be sure to check out Komodia’s free LSP Winsock guide.

Layered Service Provider (LSP – and sometimes referred to as Layered Service Protocol) is a DLL using the Winsock API to insert your code in to the communication stack. The LSP can then read, intercept, and/or modify this Internet traffic. Whether you find LSP as Layered Service Provider or Layered Service Protocol, they are referring to the same thing.
