    Computer Networks

    Computer network
    connects two or more
    autonomous
    computers.

    The computers can be


    geographically located
    anywhere.
    LAN, MAN & WAN

    1. Network in small geographical Area (Room,


    Building or a Campus) is called LAN (Local Area
    Network)

    2.Network in a City is call MAN (Metropolitan Area


    Network)

    3..Network spread geographically (Country or across


    Globe) is called WAN (Wide Area Network)
    Applications of Networks
    Resource Sharing
    Hardware (computing resources, disks, printers)
    Software (application software)
    Information Sharing
    Easy accessibility from anywhere (files, databases)
    Search Capability (WWW)
    Communication
    Email
    Message broadcast
    Remote computing
    Local Area Networks (LANs)

    Local Area Networks are privately-owned networks


    within a small area, usually a single building or campus
    of up to a few kilometers.

    Since it is restricted in size, that means their data


    transmission time can be known in advance, and the
    network management would be easier.

    Local Area Networks


    Metropolitan Area Net work

    • A Metropolitan Area Network (MAN) is a network


    that is utilized across multiple buildings
    • Commonly used in school campuses or large
    companies with multiple buildings
    • Is larger than a LAN, but smaller than a WAN
    • Is also used to mean the interconnection of several
    LANs by bridging them together. This sort of
    network is also referred to as a campus network
    Metropolitan Area Networks
    (MAN)
    Wide Area Networks

    The main difference between a MAN and a


    WAN is that the WAN uses Long Distance
    Carriers.
    Otherwise the same protocols and equipment
    are used as a MAN.

    Introduction to Computer Networks

    Network Topology
    The network topology
    defines the way in which
    computers, printers, and
    other devices are
    connected. A network
    topology describes the
    layout of the wire and
    devices as well as the
    paths used by data
    transmissions.
    Bus Topology

    Commonly referred to as
    a linear bus, all the
    devices on a bus topology
    are connected by one
    single cable.
    Star & Tree Topology
    The star topology is the most commonly
    used architecture in Ethernet LANs.
    When installed, the star topology resembles
    spokes in a bicycle wheel.
    Larger networks use the extended star
    topology also called tree topology. When
    used with network devices that filter frames
    or packets, like bridges, switches, and
    routers, this topology significantly reduces
    the traffic on the wires by sending packets
    only to the wires of the destination host.
    Ring Topology

    A frame travels around the ring, stopping


    at each node. If a node wants to transmit
    data, it adds the data as well as the
    destination address to the frame.
    The frame then continues around the
    ring until it finds the destination node,
    which takes the data out of the frame.
    Single ring – All the devices on the
    network share a single cable
    Dual ring – The dual ring topology
    allows data to be sent in both
    directions.
    Mesh Topology
    The mesh topology connects
    all devices (nodes) to each
    other for redundancy and
    fault tolerance.
    It is used in WANs to
    interconnect LANs and for
    mission critical networks like
    those used by banks and
    financial institutions.
    Implementing the mesh
    topology is expensive and
    difficult.
