Definición

  • A local area network (LAN) is a group of computers linked together over a relatively small area, generally within a business, institution, or residence; essentially, a LAN connects computers at high data speeds within one building or among a group of adjacent buildings. Users on a LAN can share files from computer to computer, tap into shared databases, and share expensive peripheral resources such as laser printers.
