138 McAfee VirusScan Plus Working with the network map When you connect a computer to the network, Network Manager analyzes the network to determine if there are any managed or unmanaged members, what the router attributes are, and the Internet status. If no members are found, Network Manager assumes that the currently connected computer is the first computer on the network and makes the computer a managed member with administrative permissions. By default, the name of the network includes the workgroup or domain name of the first computer that connects to the network and has SecurityCenter installed; however, you can rename the network at any time. When you make changes to your network (for example, you add a computer), you can customize the network map. For example, you can refresh the network map, rename the network, and show or hide components of the network map to customize your view. You can also view the details associated with any of the components that appear on the network map. Access the network map The network map provides a graphical representation of the computers and components that make up your home network. On the Basic or Advanced Menu, click Manage Network. Note: The first time that you access the network map, you are prompted to trust the other computers on the network. Refresh the network map You can refresh the network map at any time; for example, after another computer joins the managed network. 1 On the Basic or Advanced Menu, click Manage Network. 2 Click Refresh the network map under I want to. Note: The Refresh the network map link is only available if there are no items selected on the network map. To clear an item, click the selected item, or click an area of white space on the network map.
