The possible values for options are
&quot;dynamic&quot; and &quot;nodynamic&quot;.
Use this option in combination with setting
<smbconfoption name="bind interfaces only"/>
Use the &quot;dynamic&quot; to have smbd open/close listening sockets on the
interface, when IP addresses are added to or removed from the interface.
Use the &quot;nodynamic&quot; option to ignore any ip add/remove events for
interface.
Please note that when an IP address is removed, connections to that IP address
are also terminated (traditional behaviour has been to keep the TCP flow alive).

Note that dynamically opening/closing listening sockets is only available on some
