Configuring WINS Servers and NetBIOS Node Type for the Client

A Microsoft DHCP client using NetBIOS protocol contacts a Windows Internet Naming Service (WINS)

server for name resolution. Therefore, the DHCP server should assign a WINS server address when

assigning an IP address to the client.

You can specify up to eight WINS servers in a DHCP address pool.

You need to specify in a DHCP address pool a NetBIOS node type for the client to approach name

resolution. There are four NetBIOS node types:

z

b (broadcast)-node: The b-node client sends the destination name in a broadcast message. The

destination returns its IP address to the client after receiving the message.

z

p (peer-to-peer)-node: The p-node client sends the destination name in a unicast message to the

WINS server, and the WINS server returns the destination IP address.

z

m (mixed)-node: A combination of broadcast first and peer-to-peer second. The m-node client

broadcasts the destination name, if no response is received, then unicasts the destination name to

the WINS server to get the destination IP address.

z

h (hybrid)-node: A combination of peer-to-peer first and broadcast second. The h-node client

unicasts the destination name to the WINS server, if no response is received, then broadcasts it to

get the destination IP address.
