windows server 2012 r2 change node type

  • 772

I'd like to force a station to be Node Type p-mode instead of hybrid.

In regedit: cptr\HLMCurrentControlSet\Services\NetBT\Parameters I don't find the node mode.

The goal is to remove UDP port 138 packets sent by each node to the broadcast domain about every 10 minutes.

    Your registry key path is a little off, check for the DHCPNodeType value in the following key:

    HKLM\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\NetBT\Parameters

    You'll likely need to change the value from the default of 0x8 to 0x2.

    Reference: https://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc781175(v=ws.10).aspx

    The documentation reference is for Server 2003 but I just verified that the key/value are present in the same location in Server 2012 R2.
