DHCP NetBIOS Options
If your network uses NetBIOS, you can enable the Netopia R2121 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 industr y
standard. It offers LAN applications, a variety of “hooks” to carr y 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 inter face card must offer a NetBIOS
emulator. Many vendors either provide a version of NetBIOS to inter face with their hardware or emulate its
transpor t layer communications ser vices in their network products. A NetBIOS emulator is a program provided
by NetWare clients that allow workstations to run applications that suppor t IBM’s NetBIOS calls.
