| Title : Local Area Network (LAN) |
| User : fst |
| A LAN, or Local Area Network, is a computer network that spans a only a small area. Most LANs are confined to a single building, groups of buildings, or perhaps just a few miles. A LAN can be connected to other LANs over any distance via telephone lines. A system of LANs connected in this way is called a Wide Area Network, or WAN. |
