\par\sa120\sb120\qj\pard \f1\fs18\sb120 Using {\b Big Brother} consists of two parts - designing your network tree and monitoring it's activity. The latter takes no effort of yours.
\par\sa120\sb120\qj\pard \f1\fs18\sb120 To design the network layout is to put your hosts into Network Tree pane. To {\uldb add a child host}{\v HID_BROTHERS_NEW} to the current just press insert or Select Brothers/Add child from menu. To {\uldb add a brother}{\v HID_BROTHERS_ADDBROTHER} of the current host select Brothers/Add brother from menu. (note: You can't add brother to the root node)
\par\sa120\sb120\qj\pard \f1\fs18\sb120 You may also show {\uldb properties}{\v HostProps} dialog box by selecting View/Host Properties menu. {\uldb Properties}{\v HostProps} dialog box also pops up automatically whenever you press {\b Enter} in the tree view pane.
\par\sa120\sb120\qj\pard \f1\fs18\sb120 Monitoring your network activities is even easier. You just relax and watch the screen (or listen to your speakers if you have ones). Network activities are reflected using the lower host activity pane and icons in the tree view. The possible states of the host are:\pard
\par \fi0\li0 \bullet \{bmct IDI_NOHOST.bmp\}{\b Network} - you haven't specified host name or ip address for this host. The only reason that makes sense is that you probably want to use this node as a father for family of hosts.
