NIM for multiple network

Hi Guys,
I have a question on setting up the NIM server for the installation and backup of the client on different network. I have a NIM server ready which is current server a clinet of Network -A. When I configured the NIM master there was only one network adapter on my server. Now my requirement is I want more adapter on the server for installation of the clients for different vlan like network-B, network-C etc. These network vlan donot have a communication between each other.
What all thing I have to do in my existing NIM server for above requirement, also how NIM server will understand the newly added network adapter on server for new network.
Thanks,

NAME
ypset -- tell ypbind(8) which YP server process to use SYNOPSIS
ypset [-h host] [-d domain] server DESCRIPTION
Ypset tells the ypbind(8) process on the current machine which YP server process to communicate with. If server is down or is not running a YP server process, it is not discovered until a YP client process attempts to access a YP map, at which time ypbind(8) tests the binding and takes appropriate action. Ypset is most useful for binding a YP client that is not on the same broadcast network as the closest YP server, but can also be used for debugging a local network's YP configuration, testing specific YP client programs, or binding to a specific server when there are many servers on the local network supplying YP maps. The options are as follows: -h host Set the YP binding on host instead of the local machine. -d domain Use the YP domain domain instead of the default domain as returned by domainname(1). SEE ALSO
