Study Notes
LAN Characteristics
- A Local Area Network (LAN) is a collection of devices connected together in one physical location
- A LAN's single defining characteristic is that it connects devices that are in a single, limited geographical area
LAN Components
- A LAN comprises cables, access points, switches, routers, and other components
- These components enable devices to connect to internal servers, web servers, and other networks via wide area networks
Virtual LANs
- The rise of virtualization has fueled the development of virtual LANs
- Virtual LANs enable network administrators to logically group network nodes and partition their networks without a need for major infrastructure changes
Connection to WANs and MANs
- Some Wide Area Networks (WANs) and Metropolitan Area Networks (MANs) connect many LANs
- These connections enable devices to connect to internal servers, web servers, and other networks via wide area networks
