WINS. Windows Internet Naming Service is a server process for resolving
Windows-based computer names to IP addresses. If a remote network
contains a WINS server, your Windows PCs can gather information from that
WINS server about its local hosts. This allows your PCs to browse that remote
network using Network Neighborhood.
See Windows Internet Naming Service.
Wi-Fi Protected Access (WPA) is a specification of standards-based,
interoperable security enhancements that increase the level of data protection
and access control for existing and future wireless LAN systems.
