WAN requires the same technology as LAN.
LAN, WAN, MAN, And Local Area Connections.
Data transfer on LAN is much faster than on WAN.Thus replication and fragmentation will not increase throughput and speed-up on a LAN, as much as in a WAN. But even in a LAN, replication has its uses in increasing reliability and availability.
Wide area networking is also referred to just WAN and means a network that is not limited to a local area, local area network (LAN). The world wide WEB is the biggest WAN of all. An home would use a LAN. A typical office building would use a LAN. If you interconnect several LANs across a wide geographical range you end up with a WAN. Make sense?
One of the routers you have to connect to internet, another one you have to connect to the first one using a lan cable. You can use any of lan ports of the first router to connect the second one (except internet port, usually it's marked as WAN or similar to). The lan cable should be connected to the WAN port on the second one. Only in such case it works properly.
false a school network is a a LAN or MAN depending on the size or the school
ATM protocol is a WAN technology
It depends on the media, topology of the networks. You could go from 10 Mbps on a LAN to 50 or more Gbps on a WAN depending on the technology.
From the user's point of view, accessing a LAN or WAN is the same. If packets need to be forwarded from a LAN via a WAN connection that is taken care of automatically by the router.
WAN. LAN is a short range connection, WAN is wide range.
absolutely wan. lan is used for a office or a building complex
An LAN card is a must if you wish to connect to a LAN but it is not required for WAN
LAN users get access to internet or can communicate with others LAN connected to WAN.
the internetActually, a WAN is a network that spans large geographical areas (example: Dallas, St. Louis, Washington, and Delaware).The terms WAN, MAN, LAN, and similar ones all refer to the geographic layout of a particularly system. The exact technology used to cover that area is not in any way related to whether it is designated as a WAN, MAN, or LAN. For instance, Ethernet technology used to be pretty much exclusively usable in a LAN design, but now, changes in technology (and cheaper manufacturing costs) allow for a MAN design to use Ethernet technology in its implementation.As such, WAN, et al are names for the scope of the network, and not its implementation.
Extranet is wan
WAN
With a router or firewall or bridge. LAN is Local Area Network (inside a building) WAN is Wide Area Network (building to building, but inside the same organization).
WAN usually costs more. Especially, there are recurring monthly costs, since you rent the services of an ISP. Note, however, that a LAN and a WAN serve different purposes; you can't simply replace a WAN with a LAN.
