I don't have Matrix:3 yet, so any page references are welcome!

My question is should deckers know (visually) if any additional Hosts/LTGs are attached to the Host they are connected to, or should they need a "Location Access Node" (LAN) operation to find more? The description in SR3 calls this "directory assitance for the 6th world" but it makes reference to LTG address, and not address for hosts.

I made my deckers use the LAN-operation if they wanted to search for new connections from their current Host, aside from what they knew already existed (aka the way they came in).

I suppose I could just explain the Iconology as well guarded entrances to other structures or parts of the Iconology that they'd need to try and get passed opposed to making them perform a LAN-operation. For more exotic/secretive Iconologies, this sometimes wouldn't be obvious.

Any thoughts?

(Here is the simple Host I was using)
