1.7 Versioning and Capability Negotiation
This document covers versioning issues in the following areas:
Supported Transports: The Remote Administrative Interface: WINS protocol uses the RPC protocol as a transport and RPC Protocol Sequences as specified in section 2.1.
Protocol Versions: This protocol has only one interface version, but that interface has been extended by adding additional methods at the end. The use of these methods is specified in section 3.1.
Security and Authentication Methods: Authentication and security for the methods specified by this protocol are specified in [MS-RPCE] and in section 2.1.
Localization: This protocol passes text strings in various methods. Localization considerations for such strings are specified in sections 2.2 and 3.1.4.
Capability Negotiation: The Remote Administrative Interface: WINS protocol does not support interface version negotiation. Instead, this protocol uses the interface version number specified in the interface definition language (IDL) for versioning and capability negotiation.
