Usage Guidelines

Usage Scenario

For a Microsoft DHCPv4 client, you must configure the NetBIOS Windows Internet Naming Service (WINS) server, also known as the ""name server"", to parse host names.

At present, you can configure up to eight NetBIOS servers for each address pool.

The first configured ip-address is of top priority.

NOTE:

This command can be run for remote address pools but the function does not take effect.

Precautions

In VS mode, this command is supported only by the admin VS.
