Local Area Network (LAN)


About LAN

A local area network is a type of computer network that links computers in a specific location, like a home, business building, school, lab, or university campus. In contrast, a wide area network typically uses leased telecommunications lines in addition to covering a greater geographic region. Small corporate networks and home WiFi networks are typical instances of LANs.

Why is LAN important?

Computers can swiftly and readily exchange data and messages using local area networks. This expedites the process and saves time. Any user on the network can send and receive messages and data using LAN. Users can access the server-stored data through the network from any computer.
