How do you smooth faces on a object?

I need to smooth out the geometry of a scene I'm working on so the polys don't show the hard edges. I don't want to add faces just smooth the surface.

I know in Max this can be done using smoothing groups. Is there a similar type function in Maya?

Thanks for any help.
