# \[0] Scan Network for Admin Access

This option conducts a network scan to identify systems where the current user operating Amnesiac has local admin access. By default, it employs the SMB protocol for this purpose. If admin access is detected on any machine, the results will be displayed in the main menu under "Admin Sessions".

Users have the flexibility to switch between the SMB and WMI protocols for the Admin Access Scan using the `switch` command.

When the WMI protocol is selected, machines where the current user has local admin access are listed in the main menu under "Global-Listener Sessions".

It's important to note that sessions listed within "Admin Sessions" (generated as a result of performing a scan using the SMB protocol) are not active. Instead, these sessions are initialized on-demand when selected for interaction and are automatically disposed of upon exit.

For this reason, terminating an admin session is not needed.
