It is true that the Wins peer discovery protocol operates by network
broadcasts and therefore does not traverse routers.
If you know the IP address of a machine you wish to connect to, however, then
you can do this across as many routers as you like.
The relevance to netfilter is that netfilter is generally used on a routing
Linux machine.
Hope this helps,
