DHCP NetBIOS Options

If your network uses NetBIOS, you can enable the Netopia R7200 to use DHCP to distribute NetBIOS information.

NetBIOS stands for Network Basic Input/Output System. It is a layer of software originally developed by IBM and Sytek to link a network operating system with specific hardware. NetBIOS has been adopted as an industry standard. It offers LAN applications a variety of “hooks” to carry out inter-application communications and data transfer. Essentially, NetBIOS is a way for application programs to talk to the network. To run an application that works with NetBIOS, a non-IBM network operating system or network interface card must offer a NetBIOS emulator. Many vendors either provide a version of NetBIOS to interface with their hardware or emulate its transport layer communications services in their network products. A NetBIOS emulator is a program provided by NetWare clients that allow workstations to run applications that support IBM’s NetBIOS calls.

Select DHCP NetBios Options and press Return. The DHCP NetBIOS Options screen appears.
