Description
Specifies the IP port number to which NetBIOS over TCP/IP (NetBT) sends packets related to name service, such as name queries and registrations. The Windows Internet Name Service (WINS), which provides name service for NetBIOS names, listens on port 137, the default for this entry. NetBIOS name servers from other vendors may listen on different ports. This entry is installed with its default value during installation of the TCP/IP components.
Activation Method
If this interface is configured by DHCP, then a change in parameters will take effect if you enter the command ipconfig /renew at the command line. Otherwise, you must restart the computer for a change to take effect.
