What s the difference between LAN WAN and MAN

0 votes

I often hear about LAN (Local Area Network), WAN (Wide Area Network), and MAN (Metropolitan Area Network), but I am not sure how they differ in practical use. My questions are:

  • What are the defining characteristics of each type of network?
  • What technologies (e.g., Ethernet, fiber optics, wireless) are commonly used in each?
  • What are real-world examples of LAN, WAN, and MAN implementations?

A simple comparison with use cases would be useful.
