Which node type will use only NetBIOS broadcast requests using UDP broadcast?
The correct answer is A. b-node (type 0x01). A b-node (broadcast node) is a NetBIOS node type that relies exclusively on UDP broadcast requests for NetBIOS name registration and resolution.

Why each option
A b-node (broadcast node) is a NetBIOS node type that relies exclusively on UDP broadcast requests for NetBIOS name registration and resolution.
A b-node, or broadcast node (type 0x01), relies solely on NetBIOS broadcast requests for name registration and resolution. This means it sends out UDP broadcasts to discover other machines and resolve their NetBIOS names without using a WINS server.
A p-node (point-to-point node, type 0x02) uses a WINS server for name registration and resolution and does not rely on broadcasts.
An m-node (mixed node, type 0x04) first tries broadcasts and then uses a WINS server if broadcasts fail.
An h-node (hybrid node, type 0x08) first tries a WINS server and then uses broadcasts if the WINS server is unavailable or fails.
