Behavior of Find command

UNIX for Advanced & Expert Users

Centos 5.8

Lets say I have 2 nfs shares mounted to /folder1 and /folder2.

If I do a find / -name *something*

Will it also search the 2 nfs shares ?

If so is there a way to avoid this?

Thanks

From find command man page:

-xdev  Don't descend directories on other filesystems.
