Lan Wan Man

This presentation discusses different types of computer networks: 1) LAN (Local Area Network) which connects computers within a limited area like a home or office using topologies like star, bus or ring. 2) WAN (Wide Area Network) which connects multiple LANs or MANs across a large geographical area like a state or country. 3) MAN (Metropolitan Area Network) which interconnects LANs within a city or town, serving as an internet service provider for larger LANs. The presentation provides details on each network type and concludes that LANs are private networks for fast data transfer at low cost within 1km, while WANs connect over longer

•Conclusion
Networking:
A computer network is a communication that allows sharing information and resource.

• Types of Networking
Three major types of networking:
• a
1 ) LAN 2 ) MAN
3 ) WAN

Other types of networking:

i ) Personal Aria Network


(PAN)
ii ) Home Network
iii ) Enterprise Private Network
LAN (Local Area Network )

A local area network is a computer network that


connects computer in a limited area such as home,
school, office building. A LAN is useful for sharing
resource like files, printers, games and other
application.
Network Topology

•Star Topology
•Bus Topology
•Ring Topology
Star Topology

• In a star network devices are connected to a central computer, called a


hub.
• Nodes communicate across the network by passing data through the
hub.
Ring Topology

A local-area network (LAN) whose topology is a ring. That


is, all of the nodes are connected in a closed loop. Messages
travel around the ring, with each node reading those
messages addressed to it.
Bus Topology

• In networking a bus is the central cable -- the main wire -- that connects
all devices on a local-area network (LAN).
• It is also called the backbone. This is often used to describe the main
network connections composing the Internet.
• Bus networks are relatively inexpensive and easy to install for small
networks. Ethernet systems use a bus topology.
Advantages of LAN

Few advantages of LAN are mentioned below:


• Resource sharing
• E-mail
• Security
• Security
• Cost
• Speed
Disadvantages of LAN

Disadvantages of LAN are mentioned below:


• Cables may break
• File server may break
• Needs administrative time
• Expensive to install
WAN (Wide Area Network)

• A wan spans a large geographical area, such as a state,


country.WAN connects multiple smaller networks
such as local area network or metro area networks.
WAN Types

• SD- WAN
• X.25
• SONET
• Leased line
• ISDN
• Frame Relay
• DSL
• Dial-up
• Cable modem
• ATM
MAN (Metropolitan Area Network)

• A metropolitan area network is a network that interconnects


users with computer resource in a geographical area or a
region than that covered by even a large local area network but
smaller area network covered by WAN .
• It is used for interconnection of several local area networks by
bridging them backbone line.
Conclusion

• LAN is a private network used in small offices or homes


usually within 1km range with high speed transfer data
rate and fulltime service connectivity in low cost. WAN
covers a large geographical area for example, a country
or a continent.
• Its data transfer data is usually low as compared to LAN,
but it is compatible with a variety of access lines and has
an advanced security.
• MAN covers an area bigger than LAN within a city or
town and serves as an ISP for larger LAN.
• It uses optical fibers or wireless infrastructure to link the
LANs therefore, providing high speed regional resource
sharing.
