Good Morning All of you...

Computer Networking
What is a Computer Network?
● Collection of autonomous computers
interconnected by a single
technology is called computer
network.
● Two computers are set to be
interconnected if they are able to
exchange information.
● Connection can be through a copper
wire, fiber optics, microwaves,
infrared or satellite.
LAN
(local Area Network)
Place your screenshot here
LAN
(local Area Network)
1.Covers a small region of space, typically a single building.
2. LAN is the smallest network compared to other two networks.
3. the simplest form of LAN is to connect two computers together
4. LAN is operated within a limited physical area such as at home, school, a single
building or several buildings.
5. A network which consists of less than 500 interconnected devices across several
buildings, is still recognized as a LAN.
6. LAN is very high speed network (from previously 10Mbps) to 100Mbps,which is
faster than MAN and WAN.
LAN
(local Area Network)
MERITS OF LAN
● Resource Sharing : Computer resources like printers, modems, DVD
drives and hard disks can be shared with the help of local area networks. This
will reduce cost of hardware purchases.
● Software Applications Sharing: It is cheaper to use same software over
network instead of purchasing separate licensed software for each client in a
network.
● Easy and Cheap Communication: Data and messages can easily be
transferred over networked computers.
● Centralized Data: The data of all network users can be saved on hard disk
of the server computer. This will help users to use any workstation in a network
to access their data. Because data is not stored on workstations locally.
● Data Security: Since, data is stored on server computer centrally, it
will be easy to manage data at only one place and the data will be
more secure too.
● Internet Sharing: Local Area Network provides the facility to share
a single internet connection among all the LAN users. In Net Cafes,
single internet connection sharing system keeps the internet expenses
cheaper.
Continue...
● High Setup Cost: Although the LAN will save cost over time
due to shared computer resources but the initial setup costs of
installing Local Area Networks is high.
● Privacy Violations: The LAN administrator has the rights to
check personal data files of each and every LAN user. Moreover he
can check the internet history and computer use history of the LAN
users.
● Data Security Threat: Unauthorized users can access
important data of an organization if centralized data repository is not
secured properly by the LAN administrator.
● LAN Maintenance Job: Local Area Network requires a LAN
Administrator. Because, there are problems of software installations
or hardware failures or cable disturbances in Local Area Network. A
LAN Administrator is needed at this full time job.
DEMERITS OF LAN
LAN TOPOLOGIES
Bus Topology
All nodes are connected to
a single communication line
that carries messages in
both directions.
Ring Topology
A configuration that connects all
nodes in a closed loop on which
messages travel in one
direction.
Star Topology
A configuration that
centres around one node
to which all others are
connected and through
which all messages are
sent.

MAN
(Metropolitan Area
Network)

MAN
(Metropolitan Area
Network)
MAN
(Metropolitan Area
Network)
1. Is collection of LANs with the same geographical area, for instance a city.
2. Is a network of computers located at different sites within a large physical area,
such as a city.
3. MAN often acts as a high speed network(although not as fast as LAN) to allow
sharing of regional resources.
4. MAN can defined as a group of computers and network devices connected
together within a large physical area.
5. Companies that have several branches within the kuala lumpur city such as banks,
might find a MAN useful to them.
MERITS OF MAN
● It provides a good back bone for a large network and provides greater
access to WANs.
● The dual bus used in MAN helps the transmission of data in both
direction simultaneously.
● A MAN usually encompasses several blocks of a city or an entire city.
● More cable required for a MAN connection from one place to
another.
● It is difficult to make the system secure from hackers and
industrial espionage (spying) graphical regions.
DEMERITS OF MAN
WAN
(Wide Area Network)
Place your screenshot here
WAN
(Wide Area Network)
WAN
(Wide Area Network)
1. Is the largest network of all network types.
2. The internet is the largest WAN in the world.
3. WAN generally covers large distances such as states, countries or continents.
4. WAN is group of MANs or LANs or the mixture of both network.
5. An example in the society using WAN is the banking organization.
MERITS OF WAN
● Covers a large geographical area so long distance business can
connect on the one network.
● Shares software and resources with connecting workstations.
Messages can be sent very quickly to anyone else on the network.
These messages can have pictures, sounds or data included with them
(called attachments).
● Expensive things (such as printers or phone lines to the internet) can
be shared by all the computers on the network without having to buy a
different peripheral for each computer.
● Everyone on the network can use the same data. This avoids problems
where some users may have older information than others.
DEMERITS OF WAN
● Need a good firewall to restrict outsiders from entering and
disrupting the network.
● Setting up a network can be an expensive, slow and
complicated. The bigger the network the more expensive it is.
● Once set up, maintaining a network is a full-time job which
requires network supervisors and technicians to be employed.
● Security is a real issue when many different people have the
ability to use information from other computers. Protection
against hackers and viruses adds more complexity and
expense.
Technology used in WAN
● ISDN (Integrated service digital network) 2 types
● Basic Rate Interface
● Primary Rate Interface
● Frame Relay
● Switched multimegabit data service (SMDS).
● Synchronous optical network (SONET)
● High data link controlled (HDLC)
● Synchronous data link control (SDLC)
