Types of computer network
1. Local Area Network:-
It is a computer network that covers a small geographical area like an office , building , school , college etc.
*** This network is more reliable and faster than MAN and WAN.
*** A LAN is used to connect the various computer to each other for sharing the data and information.
*** It is widely used in business , factories , university etc.
*** It's data transfer speed can reach upto 10MBPS to 1GBPS.
2.Metropolitan Area Network:-
A MAN consists of a computer network across an entire city, college campus etc.
*** A MAN is larger than LAN but smaller than WAN.
*** MAN is made up of the combination of two or more than two LAN.
*** MAN covers the large geographical area.
*** The propagation delay of MAN is modarate.
*** Communication medium used for MAN are optical fibers cable.
*** Network size generally range from 5 to 50 KM.
3. Wide area network:-
A WAN is a telecommunication network.
*** A wan is contain multiple smaller network such as LAN, MAN.
*** The internet is the largest WAN.
*** WAN occupies very large area such as entire country .
*** WAN is difficult to design and maintain.
*** The biggest problem of WAN is propagation delay.
