bullet There are 2 master browsers detected on a subnet

Who can force an election?
Browsers (that includes all MetaFrame servers but not necessarily other servers) and clients can force an election

What are true statements about the election process?
A client or a server can start the election process. After this broadcast packet is sent, all servers will evaluate the packet to determine if it has higher criteria. If it does it sends out its packet, if not it evaluates the incoming packets to determine who is the new master browser. If a browser thinks it is the master browser it will send out several packets while waiting for a response. If there is no response with a higher criteria it becomes the master browser

There can be up to how many master browsers?
There can be a master browser for each protocol installed. TCP/IP, IPX/SPX, and NetBEUI will each have a Master browser as long as that protocol is installed on any machine on the local subnet. Also remember that there will be a master browser for each protocol in each subnet. That master browser may or may not be the same depending on which protocols are installed on each machine
