Basic answer: # A computer-network is group of computers and rather simple. You need no routing protocols. Single point to access or leave the network from the internet.
# Interconnection networks are two or more networks who are connected by one or more routers. You need routing protocols to determine what path to use. examples: # A Local Area Network (LAN) is a network that is confined to a relatively small area. It is generally limited to a geographic area such as a writing lab, school, or building. Rarely are LAN computers more than a mile apart. # Wide Area Networks (WANs) connect larger geographic areas, such as Florida, the United States, or the world. Dedicated transoceanic cabling or satellite uplinks may be used to connect this type of network.
internet is a collection of inter-related computers,where as computer networks is a collection of automated(independent) computers.
network is a interconnection between two or more computer
2. What is different between computer networks and internetwork?
A physical network is different from a logical network. Logical networks are defined at the Network layer by the arrangement of the hierarchical addressing scheme. Physical networks represent the interconnection of devices on a common media. Sometimes, a physical network is also referred to as a network segment
differences between unilateral and bilateral networks
Whether or not a network cable is connected to your computer.
Networks were developed as a communication method between computers at remote sites
The difference between the two is that a network could be defined as a group of locally connected computers (Eg: Computers connected in an office buliding); whereas, An internetwork is a collection of individual networks, connected by intermediate networking devices, that functions as a single large network
The Internet
Distinguish between the 4G LTE, 4G WiMax, and 4G WiBro networks based onusers perceptions
The internet is a massive network of computer networks. The browser is a piece of software that is used to view web sites on the internet, i.e., "surf the web".
a hub is a central point in a network through which all the wires pass, a switch connects more than 2 LAN networks
