Local Area Networks (LAN)
A local area network (LAN) connects two or more computers with each other
through a network cable connected to each computer. This type of computer
network generally covers a small area. A LAN can be connected to another
LAN over any distance through telephone lines and radio waves to form a
wide area network (WAN).
