When NetBIOS is not used there is no netbios-node-type.

But you are completely correct to point out that this documentation is
deficient, it is important to discuss node-type and somehow that escaped
from being documented - bad booboo on my part. Thank-you. It is being
updated now.

Again, you are correct. This change has been made now. Thank-you.
