Have also posted this in Windows 2000 forum.

I have a Cat5500 with an integrated RSM that routes between our many VLANs plus handles out Internet traffic. Every 2 minutes we are encountering a throttle on one of the VLAN interfaces on the RSM. After doing packet analysis, I found that the traffic causing this problem was NetBIOS NS requests generated by all the Windows 98 and 2000 wks. As far as I am aware, this traffic is required in a Windows environment and am looking for a way round it.

Thanks,

Daniel,
 
we have ip helper address stmts against those Vlans requiring it on catalyst before it will work, this doesnt stop the requests, only allows them thru !
