	<para>
	This integer value controls what level Samba advertises itself as for browse elections. The value of this
	parameter determines whether <citerefentry><refentrytitle>nmbd</refentrytitle>
	<manvolnum>8</manvolnum></citerefentry> has a chance of becoming a local master browser for the <smbconfoption
	name="workgroup"/> in the local broadcast area.
</para>
		
	<para><emphasis>
	Note:</emphasis> By default, Samba will win a local master browsing election over all Microsoft operating
	systems except a Windows NT 4.0/2000 Domain Controller. This means that a misconfigured Samba host can
	effectively isolate a subnet for browsing purposes. This parameter is largely auto-configured in the Samba-3
	release series and it is seldom necessary to manually override the default setting. Please refer to
	the chapter on Network Browsing in the Samba-3 HOWTO document for further information regarding the use
	of this parameter.
	<emphasis>Note:</emphasis> The maximum value for this parameter is 255. If you use higher values, counting
	will start at 0!
