NetBIOS Filter Commands 
The following describes the NetBIOS packet filter commands.  
Introduction 
NetBIOS (Network Basic Input/Output System) are TCP or UDP broadcast packets that enable a computer to 
connect to and communicate with a LAN.  
For some dial-up services such as PPPoE or PPTP, NetBIOS packets cause unwanted calls. 
You can configure NetBIOS filters to: 
•  Allow or disallow the sending of NetBIOS packets from the LAN to the WAN and from the WAN 
to the LAN. 
•  Allow or deny NetBIOS packets to be sent through VPN connections. 
•  Block or forward NetBIOS packets from initiating calls.
