The most common type of classification of computer networks is network types in terms of size and dimensions. To classify computer networks in terms of size, we have three general categories that are almost the most famous:
Local Area Network (LAN)
Metropolitan Area Network (MAN)
Wide Area Network (WAN)
Definition: A Local Area Network is a network that is located within a limited geographical area, such as a building or an office.
Usages: Connecting computers, printers, and other devices in an office or home.
Definition: Wide Area Network refers to a network that covers a larger geographic area, such as cities, countries, or even continents.
Usages: Connecting different offices of a company in different cities or countries, the Internet.
Definition: A metropolitan area network (MAN) is a type of computer network that operates within a city or medium-sized geographic area (typically 5 to 50 kilometers). These networks are typically designed to connect multiple local area networks (LANs) in an area to facilitate data exchange between organizations, universities, or companies, and often use fiber optic or wireless technologies.
Usages: High-speed Internet infrastructure, smart city networks, enterprise communications
SD-WAN stands for Software-Defined Wide Area Networks, which uses software technologies to manage and optimize network traffic. This technology allows organizations to centrally implement and manage network policies through software.
Organizations with multiple offices in different locations can use SD-WAN to connect these offices together.
SD-WAN helps improve the performance of cloud applications and provides a better user experience.
By using SD-WAN security features, organizations can protect their data from threats.
SD-WAN uses a software layer to manage network traffic across different connections (such as MPLS, Internet, LTE). This software layer automatically selects the best path for traffic, thereby improving network performance.
