What is Computer Network ??

Computer Network is a group of computers connected with


eachother through wires, optical fibres or optical links so
that various devices can interact with each other through a
network. The aim of the computer network is the sharing
of resources among various devices. In the case of
computer network technology, there are several types of
networks that vary from simple to complex level.
Components of CN Major components of computer network are:

NIC (National Interface Card) Modem


NIC is a device that helps the computer to Modem connects the computer to the

interface card contains the hardware addresses. modem is not integrated with the computer
motherboard. A modem is a separate part
on the PC slot found on the motherboard.

Hub.
Uses of CN There are various uses of computer network some of which are:

Resource Sharing Communication Medium


Resource sharing is the sharing of Computer network behaves as a
resources such as programs, printers, communication medium among the
and data among the users on the users. For example, a company
network without the requirement of contains more than one computer has
the physical location of the resource an email system which the employees
and user. use for daily communication.

server remotely.
Features of CN A list of computer network features is given below:
Architecture of CN The two types of computer network architecture are used:

Peer-To-Peer Network
Peer-To-Peer network is a network in which all
the computers are linked together with equal
privilege and responsibilities for processing the
data. Peer-To-Peer network is useful for small
environments, usually up to 10 computers.

Client/Server Network
Client/Server network is a network model designed
for the end users called clients, to access the
resources such as songs, video, etc. from a central
computer known as Server. A server performs all
the major operations such as security and network
management. All the clients communicate with
each other through a server.
Types of CN A computer network can be categorized by their size as:

Local Area Network is a group of


computers connected to each other in
a small area such as building, office.
LAN PAN
It is less costly. The data is transferred
at an extremely faster rate in LAN.
LAN provides higher security.
LAN PAN
Personal Area Network is a network arranged
within an individual person, typically within a
range of 10 meters. PAN covers an area of 30
feet. Personal computer devices that are used to
develop the PAN.
Types of CN A computer network can be categorized by their size as:

A metropolitan area network is a


WAN MAN network that covers a larger geographic
area by interconnecting a different LAN
to form a larger network. Government
agencies use MAN to connect to the
citizens and private industries. It has a
WAN MAN higher range than LAN.

A Wide Area Network is a network that extends


over a large geographical area such as states or
countries. A WAN is quite bigger network than
the LAN. The internet is one of the biggest WAN
in the world. A WAN is widely used in the field of
Business, government, and education.
