, 1 · What Is a Network?
A computer network is two or more devices connected to share data and resources. Networks are classified mainly by
geographic scale.

Type Scope Example

PAN Personal (a few meters) Bluetooth earbuds to phone

LAN Local (building/campus) Office or home network

MAN Metropolitan (city) City-wide fiber network

WAN Wide (country/global) The Internet

Data moves in small units called packets. Networks can be wired (Ethernet) or wireless (Wi-Fi), and follow either a
client–server model (central servers provide services) or peer-to-peer (devices share directly).
