networks - local area networks (LAN)

A local area network ("LAN") is network of personal computers usually in close proximity (in the same office or on the same floor of a building) hooked together. The main reason for joining these computers together is that common resources like files, data, and printers can be used by an entire group of workers. This revision note summarises the key features that you need to understand about LAN's.
