A Local Area Network (LAN) is a computer network that connects devices within a limited geographic area, such as an office, home, or campus, allowing them to share resources like files, printers, and internet access. Network administrators design and maintain LANs using switches, routers, and cabling or Wi-Fi to ensure reliable internal connectivity.
