The netbios-name-server command configures a Net Basic Input Output System (NetBIOS) server address.
The undo netbios-name-server command deletes the configuration.
By default, no NetBIOS server address is configured.

| Parameter | Description | Value | 
|---|---|---|
| ip-address1 | Specifies the IP address of a NetBIOS server. | The value is in dotted decimal notation. A maximum of eight NetBIOS server addresses can be configured, separated by space. | 
| ip-address2 | Specifies the IP address of a NetBIOS server. | The value is in dotted decimal notation. A maximum of eight NetBIOS server addresses can be configured, separated by space. | 
| ip-address3 | Specifies the IP address of a NetBIOS server. | The value is in dotted decimal notation. A maximum of eight NetBIOS server addresses can be configured, separated by space. | 
| ip-address4 | Specifies the IP address of a NetBIOS server. | The value is in dotted decimal notation. A maximum of eight NetBIOS server addresses can be configured, separated by space. | 
| ip-address5 | Specifies the IP address of a NetBIOS server. | The value is in dotted decimal notation. A maximum of eight NetBIOS server addresses can be configured, separated by space. | 
| ip-address6 | Specifies the IP address of a NetBIOS server. | The value is in dotted decimal notation. A maximum of eight NetBIOS server addresses can be configured, separated by space. | 
| ip-address7 | Specifies the IP address of a NetBIOS server. | The value is in dotted decimal notation. A maximum of eight NetBIOS server addresses can be configured, separated by space. | 
| ip-address8 | Specifies the IP address of a NetBIOS server. | The value is in dotted decimal notation. A maximum of eight NetBIOS server addresses can be configured, separated by space. | 
| all | Deletes all NetBIOS server addresses. | - | 
Usage Scenario
For Microsoft DHCP clients, the NetBIOS Windows Internet Naming Service (WINS) server name needs to be used to resolve a domain name to an IP address. To allow normal communication, run the netbios-name-server command to configure the NetBIOS server address of an address pool. During IP address assignment, the DHCP server notifies DHCP clients of NetBIOS server addresses through Option 44.
Precautions
A maximum of eight NetBIOS server addresses can be specified for each address pool.
An earlier configured ip-address has a higher priority. The IP address with the highest priority is used as the primary address, and the other seven IP addresses are used as secondary addresses.
