Introduction
 A network consists of two or more computers connected to
 each other in order to share resources.
 Networks have become a major tool            for many
 organizations to meet data processing        and data
 communication needs.
 Security services that protect the data, processing and
 communication facilities, must also be distributed
 throughout the Networks.
 Network security should be an integral part of the whole
 network and should be important to all users.

Types of Networks
 Depending on geographical extents, networks may be
 classified as:

       •   Local Area Network (LAN)
       •   Metropolitan Area Network (MAN)
       •   Wide Area Network (WAN)




                                        CMC Limited
Types of Networks contd..
Local Area Network (LAN)
 A LAN is confined to a relatively small area. It is generally
 limited to a geographic area such as a school, building or an
 office. Typical radius of a LAN is a few hundreds of meters.




In a typical LAN configuration, one or more computers are
designated as the file server. Computers connected to the file
server are called workstations.

                                             CMC Limited
Types of Networks contd..

Metropolitan Area Network (MAN)
 A Metropolitan Area Network (MAN) covers        larger
 geographical areas than LAN, such as cities.

 By interconnecting smaller networks within a large
 geographic area, information is easily disseminated
 throughout the network.

 Large organization and government agencies often use a
 MAN to establish their communication.




                                       CMC Limited
Metropolitan Area Network (MAN) contd..




Physical security of communication medium is not within the
control of the organization.


                                          CMC Limited
Types of Networks contd..
Wide Area Network (WAN)
 Wide Area Networks (WANs) connect larger geographic
 areas covering hundreds and even thousands of kilometers,
 such as the whole of India or around the globe.
