Specifying Wins Servers And Netbios Node Type For The Client; Specifying Bims Server Information For The Client - HP 6125XLG Configuration Manual

Specifying WINS servers and NetBIOS node type for the client

A Microsoft DHCP client using NetBIOS protocol must contact a WINS server for name resolution. You
can specify up to eight WINS servers for such clients in a DHCP address pool.
In addition, you must specify a NetBIOS node type for the clients to approach name resolution. There are
four NetBIOS node types:
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.
