Windows Internet Name Service is the Microsoft implementation of NetBIOS Name Service, a name server and service for NetBIOS computer names. Effectively, WINS is to NetBIOS names what DNS is to domain names — a central mapping of host names to network addresses.

WINS is a legacy protocol. If you do not already have WINS deployed on your network, do not deploy WINS - instead, deploy Domain Name System (DNS).
