Configuring A Domain Name Suffix For The Client; Configuring Dns Servers For The Client; Configuring Wins Servers And Netbios Node Type For The Client - HP A5120 EI Series Configuration Manual

NOTE:
Excluded IP addresses specified with the forbidden-ip command in DHCP address pool view are not
assignable in the current extended address pool, but are assignable in other address pools.

Configuring a domain name suffix for the client

You can specify a domain name suffix in each DHCP address pool on the DHCP server to provide the
clients with the domain name suffix. With this suffix assigned, the client only needs to input part of a
domain name, and the system will add the domain name suffix for name resolution. For more information
about DNS, see the chapter ―IPv4 DNS configuration.‖
Follow these steps to configure a domain name suffix in the DHCP address pool:
To do...
Enter system view
Enter DHCP address pool view
Specify a domain name suffix

Configuring DNS servers for the client

A DHCP client contacts a Domain Name System (DNS) server to resolve names. You can specify up to
eight DNS servers in the DHCP address pool.
Follow these steps to configure DNS servers in the DHCP address pool:
To do...
Enter system view
Enter DHCP address pool view
Specify DNS servers
Configuring WINS servers and NetBIOS node type for the
client
When assigning an IP address to a Microsoft DHCP client, the DHCP server also assigns a Windows
Internet Naming Service (WINS) server address, to be used when the Microsoft DHCP client using
NetBIOS protocol contacts the WINS server for name resolution.
You can specify up to eight WINS servers in a DHCP address pool. You must also specify a NetBIOS
node type. 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.
Use the command...
