## Configure the NetBIOS Name Server

This pool-specific option is offered to DHCP clients as a configuration parameter. This option is offered to DHCP clients in the pool only when there is no host-specific option for the client. If this option is not configured and there is no host option, the global option is used.

In this example, the NetBIOS name server is configured as `12.0.0.7`.

1. Create the address pool.

       SEFOS# configure terminal
       SEFOS(config)# ip dhcp pool 1

2. Configure the NetBIOS name server in switch 1.

       SEFOS(dhcp-config)# netbios-name-server 12.0.0.7
       SEFOS(dhcp-config)# end

3. Ensure that the NetBIOS name server has been configured.

       SEFOS# show ip dhcp server pools

   The output in switch 1 is:

       Pool Id                         : 1
