Command Reference DHCP Commands
Usage Guide
There are four types of the NetBIOS nodes of the Microsoft DHCP client: 1) Broadcast, which carries
out the NetBIOS name resolution by the broadcast method, 2) Peer-to-peer, which directly requests
the WINS server to carry out the NetBIOS name resolution, 3) Mixed, which requests the name
resolution by the broadcast method firstly, and then carry out the name resolution by the WINS server
connection, 4) Hybrid, which requests the WINS server to carry out the NetBIOS name resolution
firstly, and it will carry out the NetBIOS name resolution by the broadcast method if the response is
not received.
By default, the node type for Microsoft operating system is broadcast or hybrid. If the WINS server is
not configured, broadcast node is used. Otherwise, hybrid node is used. It is recommended to set the
type of the NetBIOS node to Hybrid.
