String Type
Range: ASCII, Hex
Default: ASCII
Description: This parameter determines how you enter the 16-character
NetBIOS name for this record. ASCII means that you enter ASCII
characters for the name. The name is left-justified, blank filled to
the 15th byte, and the 16th byte is ignored. Hex means that you
enter hexadecimal values for up to all 16 bytes. The string is
left-justified and the remaining bytes are ignored.
NetBIOS Name
Range: 0 to 16 ASCII characters (if parameter String Type=ASCII). Blank
set to null.
2 to 32 hexadecimal digits (if parameter String Type=hex)
Default:
Description: This name string is matched against NetBIOS packets. ASCII-type
strings are case-sensitive. They may contain the wildcard
character “?” that matches any character, or “*” as the last
character that matches all remaining characters. Hex type strings
may contain the sequence “**” for a byte position to indicate a
wildcard match of any byte value.
