==Node types== Under Windows, the '''node type''' of a networked [[computer]] relates to the way it resolves NetBIOS names to [[IP address]]es. This assumes that there are any IP addresses for the NetBIOS nodes, which is assured only when NetBIOS operates over NBT; thus, node types are not a property of NetBIOS per se but of interaction between NetBIOS and TCP/IP in the Windows OS environment. There are four node types. *B-node: 0x01 Broadcast *P-node: 0x02 Peer (WINS only) *M-node: 0x04 Mixed (broadcast, then WINS) *H-node: 0x08 Hybrid (WINS, then broadcast) The node type in use is displayed by opening a [[command line]] and typing ''ipconfig /all''. A [[Microsoft Windows|Windows]] computer registry may also be configured in such a way as to display "unknown" for the node type.
