  22. Network Types and Protocols • Local area networks (LANs) connect computers within close proximity • LANs are the most common types of networks • Metropolitan area networks (MANs) connect computers separated by moderate distances • Wide area networks (WANs) typically connect computers between cities, across countries, or even around the world Guide to MCSE 70-291, Enhanced

  23. Network Types and Protocols (continued) • A network protocol packages information into packets • A media access method sends packets onto the media itself • IPv4 • Most common LAN protocol used today • Also the standard protocol used to transmit information over the internet Guide to MCSE 70-291, Enhanced
