Finding the Search Scopes Page

Like many Search & Preview features, the search tabs and their settings can be made at the farm, application, site collection or site level, with settings inherited along SharePoint structure lines and with the opportunity of overriding inherited settings at any level. The settings look and act the same at each level. See “Search-Tab Configuration and Inheritance” for details about how to find the Search Tabs page for each available level.
