Networking is made up of different protocols and techniques are used to create the networks and connect the networks together in this report all the different protocols and standards will be covered and also what affect and use they have on the network.
What is LAN network?
A 'LAN' stand for 'Local area network' it is a type of network that is used to connect local workstations and servers together to make a network in which each workstation can communicate with each other across the LAN. Usually a LAN network is used for smaller networks for either companies that are just located in one building or for small offices.
What is a WAN network?
A WAN network is known as a 'wide area network' and unlike a LAN network is a network that usually stretches a lot further then a LAN network, as LAN are usually used for small local networks connecting office floors to one network where as a WAN network can be used to link a Local area networks to other network across the country or
