Differenciate between LAN and WAN ?

Local Area Network (LAN): Local Area Network (LAN) is a computer network, which is limited to a small office, single building, multiple buildings inside a campus etc.

  • A Local Area Network (LAN) is a private computer network that connects computers in small physical areas. Example: A small office, A Single building, Multiple buildings inside a campus etc.

  • Since Local Area Networks (LANs) are private networks, managed by dedicated local network administrators, Local Area Networks (LANs) are more reliable and secure than Wide Area Networks (WANs).

  • Initial set-up costs for Local Area Networks (LANs) are low as the devices required to set up the networks are cheap. Initial set-up costs .

  • Local Area Networks (LANs) running costs are less Wide Area Networks (WANs) running costs are high.

Wide Area Network (WAN): A Wide Area Network (WAN) spans over multiple geographic locations, which is composed of multiple LANs.

  • Wide Area Networks (WAN) connectivity solutions are dependent on Internet Service Providers (ISPs), budget related constraints affect the quality of WAN.

  • Wide Area Networks (WANs) involve 3rd party service providers, WAN networks are less reliable and secure.

  • Wide Area Networks (WANs) are high, because of the devices (Routers, Firewalls etc), cables and manpower required.

  • Wide Area Networks (WANs) normally have recurring monthly cost as Service Provider access fees.
