introduction to Computer
Networks
A computer network is a system of interconnected devices
that communicate and share resources. It enables data
exchange, resource sharing (e.g., printers, files), and improved
communication. Networks range from small (LAN) to large-
scale (WAN) setups, utilizing hardware like routers and
switches and protocols like TCP/IP for efficient data transfer.
Types of network
Types of networks include
• LAN (Local Area Network) for small areas like homes or offices.
• WAN (Wide Area Network) for large geographic regions.
• MAN (Metropolitan Area Network) for cities.
• PAN (Personal Area Network) for personal devices.
• SAN (Storage Area Network) for data storage.
• VPN (Virtual Private Network) for secure remote access.
Network Devices
Network devices facilitate communication within a network.
Key devices include
• Hub (broadcasts data)
• Switch (directs data to specific nodes)
• Router (routes data based on IP)
• Bridge (connects LANs)
• Gateway (connects different networks)
• Modem (converts signals)
• Repeater (amplifies signals)
• NIC (enables network connection on devices)
Network topologies
Network topologies define the layout of a network.
Common types include:-
• Bus (single central cable),
• Star (nodes connected to a central hub),
• Ring (nodes form a circular chain),
• Mesh (multiple interconnected paths),
• Tree (hierarchical structure).
