WAN – defined
A term that is short for wide area network, further defined as a computer network
that spans a relatively large geographical area. Typically, a WAN consists
of two or more local-area networks (LANs).
Computers connected to a wide-area network are often connected
through public networks, such as the telephone system.
They can also be connected through leased
lines or satellites. The largest WAN in existence is the Internet.
