Next-Hop Addresses for NBDD
At least one next-hop address (or a forwarding VLAN as described in Forwarding VLANs for
NBDD Relay on page 26-18) must be configured for the relay.
To add a next-hop address for NBDD relay:
1. At the command prompt for the UDP Relay Configuration screen, enter the following:
32=a
A screen similar to the following displays:
FORWARD TO Server List
Item Server address Server Name (if known)
1) 172.28. 5. 212
Enter IP address or host name of server to be added to list [‘h’ for help/ to exit]:
2. Enter the IP address of the next hop. Enter the address in dotted decimal format (i.e.,
198.206.181.12), a hexadecimal address (i.e., 0xc6ceb501). A host name (i.e., system.com)
may be entered if the
DNS resolver is enabled using the res command.
♦ Note ♦
This address may be the unicast address of the server
or a subnet broadcast address of the subnet where the
server is located. Using a unicast address is not recom-
mended because an
NBNS by definition may shift part
or all of its responsibility to another node in the
network segment.
3. Enter any additional addresses up to a maximum of 8. Press to return to the UDP
Relay Configuration screen.
4. Enter s to save the changes.
To delete next-hop addresses for the NBDD relay:
1. Enter 32=d at the command prompt of the UDP Relay Configuration screen. The
FORWARD TO Server List displays.
2. Enter the item number that corresponds to the entry that you want to delete. Repeat this
step to delete any additional entries.
3. Press to return to the UDP Relay Configuration screen.
4. Enter s to save the changes.
