Networking
Service
In simple terms "Network", as it is
referred to in our service, is how one computer is connected
to and communicates with another. In a home or office you likely
would see an Ethernet network made up of cables from each computer
to a "hub" that ties them all together. But networking
doesn't stop at one building. Your Internet connection (dial
up, dsl, etc.) is also part of a network. The Internet itself
is a really, really big network made up of thousands and thousands
of computers. If your computer gets information from another
computer in your office, it is doing so over a LAN (Local Area
Network). If your computer gets information from the Internet,
it is doing so over a WAN (Wide Area Network).
