NetworkPANs include a laptop, a mobile phone, and a
PDA.
LANs are usually placed in the same building or within limited distance with each other.
MANs are networks with a maximum range of about 75 kilometers (45 miles) or so, and with high-speed transmission capabilities.
WANs have no geographical limit and may connect computers or LANs (including MANs) on opposite sides of the world.

Network ArchitectureIn the administrative relationship between
nodes, networks can be divided into:
Server-based network
Peer-to-peer network

Server-Based NetworkA server controls access to some resource
(i.e. harddisk, printer, etc.)
Server serves as a host for workstation connected to the server.
A workstation requests services, such as access to files or programs on the hard disk or use of a printer, from a server.

Peer-To-Peer NetworkComputers in the network may have same
capabilities.
At one point, a given node (node A) may provide services for another node (node B).
At another time, node B may provide similar or different services for node A.

common termination point for multiple nodes and that can relay signals along the appropriate paths.
A hub is a box with a number of connectors to which nodes are attached

It is used to separate LAN segment.
It has higher data rate (10/100/1000 Mbps)

RouterA router connects two or more different
networks together.
It provides a path from a node on one network to a node on another network.
If a computer in one network would like to connect to another computer on different network, a router provides a path so that these two computers can communicate with each other.
