A local area network (LAN) connects computers and devices within a short distance like a home, school, or office building. A LAN allows for sharing of resources like files, printers, and applications. It can also connect to other LANs and wide area networks like the Internet. A LAN uses cabling or wireless connections to link nodes on a network within a limited range, allowing for high-speed transmission and resource sharing. Common examples of LANs include home or office networks that connect computers, printers and other devices within a building.

Definition: A local area network (LAN) supplies networking capability to a group of computers in close proximity to each other such as in an office building, a school, or a home. A LAN is useful for sharing resources like files, printers, games or other applications. A LAN in turn often connects to other LANs, and to the Internet or other WAN.
A computer network is a collection of interlinked computer and / or devices through a communication medium. As per geographical area networks can be classified into three types , namely Local Area Network(LAN) ,Metropolitan Area Network(MAN) and Wide Area Network(WAN).
TYPES OF NETWORK LAN MAN WAN
Lan is a localised network. This type of network is useful when you want to connect two different departments in a building. The data transfer rate for LAN technologies is upto 10 GB/s . Local Area Network is a high speed and fault tolerant data network . High transmission rates are possible in LAN because of short distances between data network .

Networking Basics Here are some of the fundamental parts of a network: Network - A network is a group of computers connected together in a way that allows information to be exchanged between the computers. Node - A node is anything that is connected to the network. While a node is typically a computer, it can also be something like a printer or CD-ROM tower. Segment - A segment is any portion of a network that is separated, by a switch, bridge or router, from other parts of the network. Backbone - The backbone is the main cabling of a network that all of the segments connect to. Typically, the backbone is capable of carrying more information than the individual segments. For example, each segment may have a transfer rate of 10 Mbps (megabits per second), while the backbone may operate at 100 Mbps. Topology - Topology is the way that each node is physically connected to the network (more on this in the next section). Local Area Network (LAN) - A LAN is a network of computers that are in the same general physical location, usually within a building or a campus. If the computers are far apart (such as across town or in different cities), then a Wide Area Network (WAN) is typically used. .
A wireless LAN (or WLAN, for wireless local area network, sometimes referred to as LAWN, for local area wireless network) is one in which a mobile user can connect to a local area network (LAN) through a wireless(radio) connection. The IEEE 802.11 group of standards specify the technologies for wireless LANs. 802.11 standards use the Ethernet protocol and CSMA/CA (carrier sense multiple access with collision avoidance) for path sharing and include an encryption method, the Wired Equivalent Privacy algorithm. High-bandwidth allocation for wireless will make possible a relatively low-cost wiring of classrooms in the United States. A similar frequency allocation has been made in Europe. Hospitals and businesses are also expected to install wireless LAN systems where existing LANs are not already in place. Using technology from the Symbionics Networks, Ltd., a wireless LAN adapter can be made to fit on a Personal Computer Memory Card Industry Association (PCMCIA) card for a laptop or notebook computer.
