A lot of ANs ? what does it referrer to ?
Wide Area Network, WAN is a collection of computers and network resources connected via a network over a geographic area. Wide-Area Networks are commonly connected either through the Internet or special arrangements made with phone companies or other service providers.
Local-Area Network, LAN has networking equipment or computers in close proximity to each other, capable of communicating, sharing resources and information. For example, most home and business networks are on a LAN.
Metropolitan-Area Network, MAN is a network that is utilized across multiple buildings. A MAN is much larger than the standard Local-Area Network (LAN) but is not as large as a Wide Area Network (WAN) and commonly is used in school campuses and large companies with multiple buildings.
Personal Area Network, PAN, is a local network designed to transmit data between personal computing devices (PCs), personal digital assistants (PDAs) and telephones. Gaming devices, like a game console system, may also be set up on a PAN.
Virtual Local Area Network, VLAN is a virtual LAN that allows a network administrator to setup separate networks by configuring a network device, such as a router, and not through cabling. This allows for a network to be divided, setup, and changed, which allows a network administrator to organize and filter data accordingly in a corporate network.
Wireless Local Area Network, WLAN is a type local network that utilizes radio waves, rather than wires, to transmit data. Today's computers have WLAN built onboard, which means no additional WiFi card needs to be installed.
WAN -wide are network. this network connection between telco company with media divices and router. this network connection country to country, earth to the moon,moon to the sea, this network there have multiple routing protocol.wan if you interested to know this, you must be to attend ccna training.
MAN - metropolitan area network, this network is limited implemention, only inside the city between telco company but the same connection, divices and routing protocol in wan network. in other in i.t person the long range wireles network is consider this a MAN network.
LAN- local area network, this network implement connection from router to switch and into computer inside your company or in your home. there have multipple configuration in lan network,v-lan,rstp, etc. if deffends the project.
WLAN- wireless local area network. this network now is built in your laptop.there have many wlan divices can insert in your usb port. but you should install the driver software if your operating systen did not recognized. wlan can connect to wireless router with or w/o internet but should you know the ssid and encryption and security key.
PAN- personal area network- this is1st invented small RF signal in the laptop or computer. this call bluetooth device. there have security key to connect other blutooth device such a mobile phone to transfer file
WAN- Wide Area Network (connect multiple smaller networks, such as local area networks (LANs) or metro area networks (MANs)
MAN- Metropolitan Area Network(a network spanning a physical area larger than a LAN but smaller than a WAN, such as a city)
LAN-Local Area Network (connects network devices over a relatively short distance)
WLAN-Wireless Local Area Network LAN based on WiFi wireless network technology)
VLAN-Virtual Local Area Network (local area network with a definition that maps workstations on some other basis than geographic location)
PAN-Personal Area Network ( networks typically involve a mobile computer, a cell phone and/or a handheld computing device such as a PDA)
WAN: Wide Area Networks cover a broad area, like communication links that cross metropolitan, regional
MAN: Metropolitan Area Networks are very large networks that cover an entire city.
LAN: Local Area Networks cover a small physical area, like a home, office.
WLAN: Wireless Local Area Networks enable users to move around within a larger coverage area
VLAN: A virtual local area network is a logical group of workstations, servers and network devices that appear to be on the same LAN despite their geographical distribution
PAN: Personal Area Networks are used for communication among various devices, such as telephones, personal digital assistants, fax machines, and printers
Everything in Networking has its separate Area.
These all are the Networks.
Personal area network, or PAN
Local area network, or LAN
Metropolitan area network, or MAN
Wide area network, or WAN
Storage area network, or SAN
Enterprise private network, or EPN
Virtual private network, or VPN
Most popular network types are LAN and WAN.
One broadcast domain is called LAN.
A network implemented in large numbers of devices over the Internet is called WAN.
These are the Network types everyone have different work and different structure. Most popular network types are LAN and WAN.
one broadcast domain is called LAN.
A network implemented in large numbers of devices over the Internet is called WAN
in Simple Language all are these are NETWORK TYPES depend upon what you need you setup
Networks
These are networks which are devided based on their physical structure......type of connectivity..
Part of networking administrator...
