LAN and WAN

LAN and WAN
LAN- LAN stands for Local Area Network. It is a computer network that is provided to a relatively small area. Most LAN'S are limited to a single building or a group of buildings. However one LAN can be connected to other LAN'S through telephone lines and radio waves.


WAN- WAN stands for Wide Area Network. It is a computer network that spans a relatively large geographical area. They are often connected through public networks, such as the telephone system. They can also be connected through leased lines or satellites.
