A Primer on HP Probe
Summary
Summary
In order to run NS on an IP router network, the main issue is how the name-
to-IP-address mapping is done for nodes on other subnets. If bridging is
enabled, then the name requests are bridged and the mapping is performed
using Probe name request/reply packets. If bridging is not enabled on the
network, then proxy servers need to be on each subnet, and the mapping is
performed by Probe proxy request/reply packets. As an alternative, the
Nodal Registry on each node communicating over the network could be
configured with the entries required for nodes on remote subnets.
