You only need a WINS proxy on the client VLANs that will have non-WINS
enabled clients (i.e. Unix,Linux). If all your client boxes are MS OSs
then you can manually configure them with the IP address of the WINS server
or, preferably, let DHCP dish it out. I believe it 044 and 046 in the DHCP
scope options. 044 specifies the H-node NetBIOS node type and 046
specifies the IP address of the WINS server.

Subject: WINS PROXY IN ROUTED NETWORKS
Hi guys!
I'm going to segment a corporative lan, and I'm planning to do several
vlans for the clients and a different vlan acting as "server farm" . All
the clients need to be loged in a NT server that must be in this separate
server farm vlan, then I think I need a wins proxy in each client vlan to
translate the request to the NT server that provides the domain. The vlans
will be routed by a L3 switch.
My question is if there is a CISCO feature that permits to translate this
broadcast requests to the NT server (similar as "helper address") or the
use of a wins proxy is mandatory (we don't want to configure DNS resolution
for this).
