Section 3 - Conguration
NetBIOS Scope:
NetBIOS Node:
WINS IP
Address:
This is an advanced setting and is normally left blank. This allows the conguration of a NetBIOS ‘domain’ name under which network
hosts operate. This setting has no eect if the ‘Learn NetBIOS information from WAN’ is activated.
This eld indicates how network hosts are to perform NetBIOS name registration and discovery. H-Node indicates a Hybrid-State of
operation. First WINS servers are tried, if any, followed by local network broadcast. This is generally the preferred mode if you have
congured WINS servers. M-Node (default) indicates a Mixed-Mode of operation. First a broadcast operation is performed to register
hosts and discover other hosts, if broadcast operation fails, WINS servers are tried, if any. This mode favours broadcast operations
which may be preferred if WINS servers are reachable by a slow network link and the majority of network services such as servers
and printers are local to the LAN. P-Node indicates to use WINS servers ONLY. This setting is useful to force all NetBIOS operation
to the congured WINS servers. You must have congured at least the primary WINS server IP to point to a working WINS server.
B-Node indicates to use local network broadcast ONLY. This setting is useful where there are no WINS servers available, however,
it is preferred you try M-Node operation rst. This setting has no eect if the ‘Learn NetBIOS information from WAN’ is activated.
