Listing of remote shared folders with "net view": Some with "UNC", others without?

In a local network (without Active Directory). I list the shared folders on a remote computer with

net view \\comp123

The response is a table with just over a dozen shared folders.
But: Some have a value "(UNC)" behind them (in the "used as" column).
For others, however, this column is empty.

What does (UNC) mean behind a shared folder?

And how can I change the status of a shared folder from (UNC) to non-(UNC) or vice versa?
