Configuring NBDD Relay
If you want to send NetBIOS datagrams across networks, you should enable the NBDD relay.
To enable the NBDD relay, enter 3=y at the command prompt of the UDP Relay Configuration
screen. The screen redisplays similar to the following:
UDP Relay Configuration
1) BOOTP/DHCP Enabled : Yes
11) Server Address{list/add/delete} : UNSET
12) Forward Delay : 3
13) Maximum Hops : 4
2) NBNS Enabled : Yes
21) Next-hop Address {list/add/delete} : UNSET
22) Forward to VLANs {list/add/delete} : UNSET
3) NBDD Enabled : Yes
31) Next-hop Address {list/add/delete} : UNSET
32) Forward to VLANs {list/add/delete} : UNSET
4) +Generic Services Menu
Command {Item=Value/?/Help/Quit/Redraw/Save} (Redraw) :
Either a Next-hop Address or a Forward to VLANs value must be configured for the relay.
Next-hop Address
Use this parameter to list, add, or delete the server address(es) to which the
NBNS UDP relay
will forward. The default is UNSET. This value redisplays as SET when at least one address is
configured. Up to 8 addresses may be configured. You can list, add, or delete addresses by
entering 31=l, 31=a, or 31=d on the command line.
Forward to VLANs
Use this parameter to list, add, or delete
VLANs to which the NBNS UDP relay will forward.
This default is UNSET. This value changes to SET when at least one VLAN is configured. Up to
32 VLANs may be configured. You can list forwarding VLANs, or add or delete VLANs from the
forwarding list by entering 32=l, 32=a, or 32=d on the command line. Entries marked with an
asterisk indicate the VLANs to which the relay will forward.
