Explain what makes a MAN different from a WAN.

What will be an ideal response?


A MAN can be found, for example, connecting the departments of a city government if those departments are scattered throughout a city. A MAN network will typically use transmission devices provided by a local common carrier such as the telephone or cable TV provider. A MAN is larger than a LAN but smaller than a WAN. This category is used primarily for information networks like those found in large offices and buildings.
