Another meaning for namespace?

I just read about the ManagementScopeclass on MSDN and he said something that confused me.

The example connects to the namespace on the remote computer.

AND? What is the "namespace on the remote computer"? I thought the namespace was an artificial way to combine functionality. Wikipedia says the namespace is "an abstract container or environment designed to hold a logical grouping of unique identifiers or characters."

What does MSDN say?
