      Common Questions about IP Network Installation

      What is the difference between a LAN and a WAN?

      LANs and WANs are two types of computer networks that differ in coverage and technology.

      A LAN (Local Area Network) is a small network that covers a limited area, like homes, offices, and buildings. Ethernet is the predominant technology used in LANs, and they utilise both Layer 1 and Layer 2 devices, including switches and hubs.

      In contrast, WANs (Wide Area Networks) cover a larger geographic area, such as the Internet, and use Layer 3 devices like routers and multi-layer switches. Understanding the differences between these networks can help businesses choose the right network for their needs.

      What types of equipment do I need for a LAN or WAN?

      The equipment required for a LAN or WAN depends on the specific requirements of your business. However, common equipment used for LANs and WANs includes routers, switches, and firewalls.

      Routers are devices that connect two or more networks and direct traffic between them, while switches connect multiple devices within a network, enabling communication between them.

      Firewalls are security devices that monitor and control incoming and outgoing network traffic based on predetermined security rules.

      Working with an experienced team like ClearView Communications can help you determine the specific equipment you need for your LAN or WAN, based on your business needs and budget.

      How can LANs and WANs benefit my business?

      LANs and WANs can benefit your business in several ways:

      1. They can improve communication and collaboration by connecting multiple devices and locations, making sharing information and working together easier.
      2. LANs and WANs can centralise data storage and resources, making them easier to manage and access. As a result, it leads to improved efficiency and productivity.
      3. LANs and WANs can be designed to be highly scalable, allowing your business to add more devices or locations without overhauling your entire network infrastructure.
      4. LANs and WANs can be made highly secure by implementing security protocols such as firewalls, encryption, and user authentication, ensuring that your sensitive data is protected from unauthorised access or data breaches.

      How scalable are LANs and WANs?

      LANs and WANs can be designed to be highly scalable, allowing your business to add more devices or locations without overhauling your entire network infrastructure. This means that you can grow your business without worrying about your network’s capacity.

      The scalability of a LAN or WAN depends on various factors, including the initial design, the type of equipment used, and the capacity of the network infrastructure. Working with an experienced team like ClearView can help ensure that your LAN or WAN is scalable by designing a network topology that meets your business needs and can grow with your business.

      How secure are LANs and WANs?

      LANs and WANs can be made highly secure by implementing security protocols such as firewalls, encryption, and user authentication. However, the security of a LAN or WAN depends on various factors, including the design of the network, the security measures implemented, and the behaviour of users.

      Working with an experienced team like ClearView Communications can help ensure your LAN or WAN is secure by identifying potential security risks and implementing the necessary security measures to mitigate them.

      What is network topology?

      A network topology is the layout of nodes and connections in a network. This includes devices like switches, routers, and software with switch and router features. Network topology diagrams are often represented as a graph and help administrators determine optimal placements for nodes and traffic flow. A well-planned network topology can help organisations locate and fix issues more efficiently, improving data transfer efficiency. Network topology diagrams are created using network nodes and lines representing connections and differ depending on the needs of the network.
