b (broadcast)-node—A 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—A 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—An m-node client broadcasts the destination name. If it receives no response, it
unicasts the destination name to the WINS server to get the destination IP address.
h (hybrid)-node—An h-node client unicasts the destination name to the WINS server. If it receives
no response, it broadcasts the destination name to get the destination IP address.
To configure WINS servers and NetBIOS node type in a DHCP address pool:
Step
1.
Enter system view.
2.
Enter DHCP address pool
view.
3.
Specify WINS servers.
4.
Specify the NetBIOS node
type.

Specifying BIMS server information for the client

Perform this task to provide the BIMS server IP address, port number, and shared key for the clients. The
DHCP clients contact the BIMS server to get configuration files and perform software upgrade and
backup.
To configure the BIMS server IP address, port number, and shared key in the DHCP address pool:
Step
1.
Enter system view.
2.
Enter DHCP address pool view.
3.
Specify the BIMS server IP
address, port number, and
shared key.

Specifying the TFTP server and boot file name for the client

To implement client auto-configuration, you must specify the IP address or name of a TFTP server and the
boot file name for the clients, and there is no need to perform any configuration on the DHCP clients.
A DHCP client obtains these parameters from the DHCP server, and uses them to contact the TFTP server
to get the configuration file used for system initialization. Auto-configuration operates as follows:
1.
When a router starts up without loading any configuration file, it sets an active interface (such as
the interface of the default VLAN or a Layer 3 Ethernet interface) as the DHCP client to get
configuration parameters from the DHCP server, including the IP address or name of a TFTP server,
and the boot file name.
