- Client Identifier - Enter a unique identification of the client specified in dotted hexadecimal notation, such as: 01b6.0819.6811.72. or: - MAC Address - Enter the MAC address of DHCP static host. - Client Name - The name of the client, using a standard set of ASCII characters. The client name must not include the domain name. - Default Router - Enter the default router for the DHCP client. - Domain Name Server - Enter the DNS server available to the DHCP client. - Domain Name - Enter the domain name for a DHCP client. The domain name may contain up to 32 characters. - NetBIOS WINS Server - Enter the NetBIOS WINS name server available to a DHCP client. - NetBIOS Node Type - Select how to resolve the NetBIOS name. Valid node types are: • Empty - Default value. • Broadcast - IP Broadcast messages are used to register and resolve NetBIOS names to IP addresses. • Peer-to-Peer - Point-to-point communications with a NetBIOS name server are used to register and resolve computer names to IP addresses. • Mixed - A combination of b-node and p-node communications is used to register and resolve NetBIOS names. M-node first uses b-node; then, if necessary, p-node. M-node is typically not the best choice for larger networks because its preference for b-node Broadcasts increases network traffic. • Hybrid - A hybrid combination of b-node and p-node is used. When configured to use h-node, a computer always tries p-node first and uses b-node only if p-node fails. This is the default. - SNTP Server - Enter the IP address of the time server for the DHCP client. 302 Dell PowerConnect 55xx Systems User Guide
