Protocol

Question 2

Compare LANs,WANs,and MANs.

Accepted Answer

A local area network (LAN)is designed to connect group of computers in close proximity to each other such as in an office building,a school,or a home.A wide area network (WAN)spans a large geographic area,such as a state,province or country.WANs often connect multiple smaller networks,such as local area networks (LANs)or metropolitan area networks (MANs).A metropolitan area network (MAN)is a large computer network usually spanning a city.
