WINS server

If the local network has a WINS server installed, specify the IP address. FNS-5000B will

automatically register its name and IP address with WINS service. If you do not want to

enable WINS server support, or you do not have a WINS server on your network, enter

0.0.0.0 in the field for WINS server IP address.

Domain Master

There is a unique Domain Master Browser for collecting and recording resources and

services available for each PC in the network or workgroup of Windows. When a domain

master browser (Windows 2000 / XP PC) exists already in the network, there is no need

to configure FNS-5000B as the domain master.

When you find the waiting time for accessing Network Neighborhood too long, it may be

caused by failure of an existing master browser, or there is no master browser in the

network. If there is no master browser in your network, you can check the box Domain

Master in this section to configure FNS-5000B as the master browser to enhance the

speed of accessing information on Network Neighborhood.
