Learn about the different types of networks - Local Area Networks (LANs), Metropolitan Area Networks (MANs), and Wide Area Networks (WANs). Understand the various connecting devices and the OSI layers in which they operate. Explore the client-server model, the OSI model, and TCP/IP. Gain knowledge about the rationale behind the existence of networks.

Chapter 6 ComputerNetworks
OBJECTIVES Distinguish between the three types of networks: LANs, MANs,and WANs. List different connecting devices and the OSI layers in whicheach device operates. Understand client-server models. Understand the OSI model and TCP/IP. Understand the rationale for the existence of networks. After reading this chapter, the reader should be able to:
6.1 NETWORKS, LARGE AND SMALL (LAN, MAN, WAN)
6.2 OSI MODEL
Note: The Open Systems Interconnection modelis a theoretical model that shows howany two different systems can communicate with each other.
