Chapter 1: Understanding Networks 9. What is a network? Lets start with the word networking itself. Lets take an example of deliberated intended communication via a phone call. Its a network of people talking to each other. Post Office network, a real world example LAN vs. WAN, stands for wide area network. Two types of networks that allow for interconnectivity between computers. LANs are for smaller, more localized networking, in a home, business, school, etc.

WANs cover larger areas, such as cities, and even allow computers in different nations to connect. And while LANs tend to be owned, controlled and managed in- house by the organization where they are deployed, WANs typically require two or more of their constituent LANs to be connected over the public Internet or via a private connection established by a third-party telecommunications provider.

Computers connected to a wide- area network are often connected through public networks, such as the telephone system. They can also be connected through leased lines or satellites. Comparison chart Components of LAN 1.

An IP address is analogous to a street address or telephone number in that it is used to uniquely identify a network device to deliver mail message. This one has four individual interfaces. And that network address translation is all configured automatically. And of course, you can configure many aspects of that wireless configuration. This would be the name of the wireless network that appears in the list of available networks when you connect. You get to choose the security mode over the wireless network, which is how the data will be protected as it goes through the air.

Normally, the WPA2 encryption is a good choice. And many wireless routers allow you to set a shared key that everyone will use, or you can configure an enterprise configuration where every user will put in their own user name and password to gain access to the wireless network.

And finally, you can decide what channel or set of channels you would like to use for this particular access point to provide that connectivity for your wireless devices. Both the wide area network connection and your local area connections on that SOHO router need to have IP addresses assigned to them.
