www.dell.com | support.dell.com Address Resolution using NetBIOS WINS Windows Internet Naming Service (WINS) is a name resolution service that Microsoft DHCP clients use to correlate host names to IP addresses within a group of networks. Microsoft DHCP clients can be one of four types of NetBIOS nodes: broadcast, peer-to-peer, mixed, or hybrid. Step 1 2 Task Command Syntax Specify the NetBIOS Windows Internet Naming Service (WINS) name servers, in order of preference, that are available to Microsoft Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) clients.

The DHCP server assign the client an available IP address automatically, and then creates a entry in the binding table. However, the administrator can manually create an entry for a client; manual bindings are useful when you want to guarantee that particular network device receives a particular IP address. Manual bindings can be considered single-host address pools. There is no limit on the number of manual bindings, but you can only configure one manual binding per host. Note: FTOS does not prevent you from using a network IP as a host IP; be sure to not use a network IP as a host IP.
