WINS
The WINS option allows you to specify the IP address of the WINS (Windows Internet Naming
Service) server. A WINS server is typically a Windows server on the network that will allow the
ReadyNAS or other devices on the network to be (Windows) browsable from other subnets.
If you do not have an existing WINS server, you can designate the ReadyNAS to be one. Simply
select the Enable WINS checkbox and configure your Windows PC to specify the ReadyNAS IP
address as the WINS server. This can be useful if you wish to browse by hostname across multiple
subnets, i.e. over VPN.
