Local Area Network
A local area network (LAN) is a group of
computers and associated devices that share a common communications line or
wireless link and typically share the resources of a single processor or server
within a small geographic area (for example, within an office building).
Usually, the server has applications and data storage that are shared in common
by multiple computer users. A local area network may serve as few as two or
three users (for example, in a home network) or many as thousands of users.
Typically, a suite of application programs can be kept on the LAN server.
Users who need an application frequently can download it once and then run it
from their local hard disk. Users can order printing and other services as
needed through applications run on the LAN server. A user can share files with
others at the LAN server; read and write access is maintained by a LAN
administrator. A LAN server may also be used as a Web server
if safeguards are taken to secure internal applications and data from outside
access.
In some situations, a wireless
LAN may be preferable to a wired LAN because it is cheaper to install
and maintain.
