2.2.1.2.95 IPX_STATIC_NETBIOS_NAME_INFO

  • Article

The IPX_STATIC_NETBIOS_NAME_INFO structure MAY<86> be used to contain the static NetBIOS name for an IPX interface. When this structure is encapsulated in RTR_TOC_ENTRY (section 2.2.1.2.4), the InfoType value MUST be 0x0000000A. 

 typedef struct _IPX_STATIC_NETBIOS_NAME_INFO {
   union {
     ULONG DwordAlign;
     UCHAR Name[16];
   };
 } IPX_STATIC_NETBIOS_NAME_INFO,
  *PIPX_STATIC_NETBIOS_NAME_INFO;

DwordAlign: This field of the union MUST NOT be used.

Name: Static NetBIOS names MUST be used to confine NetBIOS over IPX broadcast traffic in environments where client-side NetBIOS applications need to access a small set of server-side NetBIOS applications.
