Join a managed network
When you receive an invitation to join a managed network, you
can accept it or reject it. You can also determine whether you
want this computer and other computers on the network to
monitor each other's security settings (for example, whether a
computer's virus protection services are up-to-date).
1
In the Managed Network dialog box, ensure that the
every computer on this network to monitor security
settings check box is selected.
2
Click Join.
When you accept the invitation, two playing cards appear.
3
Confirm that the playing cards are the same as those
displayed on the computer that invited you to join the
managed network.
4
Click OK.
Note:
If the computer that invited you to join the managed
network does not display the same playing cards that appear in
the security confirmation dialog box, there has been a security
breach on the managed network. Joining the network can place
your computer at risk; therefore, click
Network dialog box.
Invite a computer to join the managed network
If a computer is added to the managed network, or another
unmanaged computer exists on the network, you can invite that
computer to join the managed network. Only computers with
administrative permissions on the network can invite other
computers to join. When you send the invitation, you also specify
the permission level you want to assign to the joining computer.

box, do one of the following:

(you can use this option for temporary users in your

Click Allow full access to managed network programs
to allow the computer access to the network.
Click Allow administrative access to managed network
programs to allow the computer access to the network
with administrative permissions. It also allows the
