Utilizing Windows Programs Chapter 3
3.1 Discovery Program – ManagementtAccessProgram(MAP)AP)
Note
•The maximum hop value defines the maximum number of subnetworks the program will search to find a NIC. Setting a value 0 tells discovery program to search only within the subnet to which the workstation is connected. A hop value of 2 tells discovery program to search all net- works accessible through as many as two routers. A value of 15 or greater specifies automatic search of all connected networks, but this is not recommended because of the amount of traffic it generates.
3.After the settings are the way you want, click OK to set them and close the dialog box.
3.1.3 Using the MAP
Use the following procedure to start up MAP and search for all compatible NICs that are available on a network.
1.Click Start, point to Programs, and then point to MAP.

A list of NICs found by the MAP search appears on the Web Browser installed on the workstation.
