Configuring NBNS Relay
Each
NetBIOS
PC has a name unique for its local network. If you are using
NetBIOS
broadcast
queries to resolve names and
NetBIOS
clients are located in different groups or
VLANs
, you
should configure
UDP
relay for
NBNS
.
The relays are enabled from the UDP Relay Configuration screen and are configured in simi-
lar ways. The UDP Relay Configuration screen is displayed using the
relayc
command
described in UDP Relay Configuration Screen on page 26-3. To enable the
NBNS
relay, enter
2=y
. (To enable the NBDD relay, enter see Configuring NBDD Relay on page 26-16.)
The UDP Relay Configuration screen redisplays similar to the following:
UDP Relay Configuration
1) BOOTP/DHCP Enabled : Yes
11) Server Address{list/add/delete} : UNSET
12) Forward Delay : 3
13) Maximum Hops : 4
2) NBNS Enabled : Yes
21) Next-hop Address {list/add/delete} : UNSET
22) Forward to VLANs {list/add/delete} : UNSET
3) NBDD Enabled :No
4) +Generic Services Menu
Command {Item=Value/?/Help/Quit/Redraw/Save} (Redraw) :
Either a Next-hop Address or a Forward to VLANs value must be configured for the relay.
Next-hop Address
Use this parameter to list, add, or delete the server address(es) to which the
NBNS UDP
relay
will forward. The default is
UNSET.
The value redisplays as
SET
when at least one address is
configured. Up to 8 addresses may be configured. You can list, add, or delete addresses by
entering
21=l
,
21=a
, or
21=d
on the command line.
Forward to VLANs
Use this parameter to list, add, or delete
VLANs
to which the
NBNS UDP
relay will forward.
This default is
UNSET
. This value redisplays as
SET
when at least one
VLAN
is configured. Up
to 32
VLANs
may be configured. You can list forwarding
VLANs
, or add or delete
VLANs
from
the forwarding list by entering
22=l
,
22=a
, or
22=d
on the command line. Entries marked with
an asterisk indicate the
VLANs
to which the relay will forward.
