`Managing Static Mappings
`Managing Special Names
`WINS recognizes special names for several types ef—greupsofgroups, including
`a normal group,
`multihomed, and internet group. This section describes these groups and
`presents some
`background details to help you understand how WINS manages these groups.
`Normal Group Names
`AgreepA.group name does not have an address associated with it. It can be valid
`on any subnet and
`can be registered with more than one WINS server. AgreupA group's timestamp
`shows the last time
`
`for any change received for the group. —I—fi*eheIf the WINS server receives a query
`for the group name,
`
`Petitioner Sipnet EU S.R.O. - Exhibit 1018 - Page 126
`
`

`
`it returns FFFFFFFF (the limitediimited broadcast address). The client then
`broadcasts on the subnet.
`
`The group name is renewed when any member of the group renews the group name.
`Multihomed Names
`
`AmultihemedA1nultihomed name isemHa3glea.single, unique name storingimiltiple
`addresses. A multihomed device
`
`is aeemputera computer with multiple network cards and/or multiple IP;§
`addresses bound to NetBIOS over
`
`TCP/IP. AmultihemedA multihomed device with multiple IP addresses can
`register one or more addresses
`by sending one address at a time in a special name registration packet.
`AmultihemedA multihomed name in
`
`a WINSWlNS database can have one or more addresses. The timestamp for the
`record reflects any
`changes made for any members of the name.
`Each multihomed group name can contain a maximum of 25 IP addresses.
`WhenWnen.you.configure TCP/IP manually on.aWindewsa Windows NT computer, you
`use the Advanced
`
`Microsoft TCP/IP;§ dialog box to specify the IP;§ address and other
`information for each adapter
`on a multihomed computer.
`Internet Group Names
`The internet group name is read as configuration data. When dynamic name
`registrations for
`internet groups are received,
`broadcast address)
`is
`
`the actual address (rather than the subnet
`
`stored in the group with a timestamp and the owner ID, which indicates the
`WINS server
`
`registering that address.
`The internet group name (which has a 16th byte ending in exlG0x1C reserved
`for domain names,
`as described in the following section) can contain amaximema maximum of 25
`IP addresses for primary
`and backup domain controllers in.a domain. Dynamically registered names are
`added iftheif the list
`
`is not static and hasggg fewer than 25 members. If the list has 25 members,
`WINS removes a
`
`replica member (that is, amembera member registered by another WINS server)

`WINS always returns a negative response.
`The internet group name is handled specially by WINS, which returns the 24
`closest Windows
`
`NT Server computers in the domainq plus the domain.controller. The name ending

`
`used to discover aWindewsa.Windows NT Server computer in.ademaina domain.when

`
`If your network still has domain controllers running Windows NT Advanced
`Server version 3.1
`
`to be included in the internet group name, you must add these to the group
`manually using
`WINS Manager. When.you.manually add such.aeempatera computer to the internet
`group name,
`the list
`becomes static and no longer accepts dynamic updates from WINSWlNS—enabled
`computers.

`Managing the WINS Database

`\systemreetsysfemroof\SYSTEM32\WINSW NS directory thattrwat is created
`when you set up a WINS server:
`._____
`
`JET.LOG is a log of all transactions done with the database. This file is used
`by WINS to
`recover data if necessary.
`
`as
`
`S¥S$EMTMDBl SYSTEMMDB is used by WINS for holding information about the
`structure of its database.

`
`WINSTMPTMDB' WINSTMPMDB is a temporary file that WINS creates. This file may
`remain in the \WINS

`
`
`The JET.LOG, SYSTEMMDB WINSMDB, and
`WINSTMPTMBBWINSTMPMDB files should not be removed
`
`or tampered with in any manner.
`Like any database,
`the WINS database of address mappings needs to be cleaned
`and backed
`
`up periodically. WINS Manager provides the tools you need for maintaining the
`database. This
`
`section describes how to scavenge (clean), view, and back up the database.

`the relationship between the Renewal and Extinct intervals defined in the
`Configuration dialog

`For example, ifyeuaaneif you.Want to verify old replicas immediately instead
`of waiting the time interval
`specified for verification, you can manually scavenge the database.
