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:

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.

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.

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, it unicasts the destination name to the

WINS server to get the destination IP address.

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, it broadcasts it to get

the destination IP address.
