LAN 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 to a server.
MAN. Metropolitan Area Network: A metropolitan area network (MAN) is a network that
interconnects users with computer resources in a geographic area or region larger than that
covered by even a large local area network (LAN) but smaller than the area covered by a
wide area network (WAN)
WAN Wide Area Network: A wide area network (WAN) is a telecommunications
network or computer network that extends over a large geographical distance. Wide area networks
are often established with leased telecommunication circuits.
CAN. Controller Area Network: A Controller Area Network (CAN bus) is a vehicle
bus standard designed to allow microcontrollers and devices to communicate with each other in
applications without ahost computer.
PAN Personal Area Network: A personal area network (PAN) is a computer
network used for data transmission amongst devices such
as computers, telephones, tablets and personal digital assistants.
PROTOCOL Protocol is the special set of rules that end points in a
telecommunication connection use when they communicate. Protocols specify
interactions between the communicating entities.
FIREWALL Firewall is a network security system that monitors and controls the incoming
and outgoing network traffic based on predetermined security rules.
BANDWIDTH Bandwidth is the bit-rate of available or consumed information capacity
expressed typically in metric multiples of bits per second.
GATEWAY A gateway is a link between two computer programs or systems such as Internet
Forums.
NETWORK TOPOLOGY Network topology is the arrangement of the various elements
(links, nodes, etc.) of a computer network.
BUS TOPOLOGY A bus network is a network topology in which nodes are directly
connected to a common linear (or branched) half-duplex link called a bus.
RING TOPOLOGY A ring network is a network topology in which each node connects
to exactly two other nodes, forming a single continuous pathway for signals through each node a ring.
MESH TOPOLOGY A mesh network is a network topology in which each node relays
data for the network.
TREE TOPOLOGY A tree topology combines characteristics of lineDhromar bus and
star topologies.
STAR TOPOLOGY A star topology is a topology for a Local Area Network (LAN) in
which all nodes are individually connected to a central connection point, like a hub or a switch.
SERVER Server is a computer program or a device that provides functionality for other
programs or devices, called "clients".
ISP Internet Service Provider : An Internet service provider (ISP) is an organization that
provides services for accessing and using the Internet.
.
DIRECTORY A directory is a file system cataloging structure which contains references
to other computer files, and possibly other directories.
ETHERNET Ethernet /ˈiːθərnɛt/ is a family of computer networking technologies commonly
used in local area networks (LANs) and metropolitan area networks (MANs).
NETWORK A computer network or data network is a
telecommunications network which allows computers to exchange data.
