Q2. What are the different types of networks?
Ans. Considering the size or span of a network, we can classify them as follows: PAN (Personal Area Network) – PAN is made up of devices used by a single person. It has a range of a few meters. WPAN (Wireless Personal Area Network) – It is a PAN network that uses wireless technologies as a medium. LAN (Local Area Network) – LAN is a network whose range is limited to a relatively small area, such as a room, a building, an aeroplane, etc. WLAN (Wireless Local Area Network) – WLAN is a LAN network that uses wireless means of communication. It is a widely used configuration due to its scalability and because it does not require the installation of cables.
