    This document describes a typical local area network (LAN) design connected to the internet or an internet service provider (ISP) using a modem. A modem converts internet data to a format that can be understood by devices like a router. The router or gateway serves as the access point for the network and assigns IP addresses to connected devices. A switch connects and manages data flow between devices such as personal computers. Personal computers receive internet data through the switch and router after the data is received by the modem from the internet. A computer server allows continued use of personal computers by managing them on the network.

    This is a typical LAN design connected to internet or ISP(Internet Service Provider) using a modem. The internet send
    data to modem and convert it to a suitable format for other devices that connected to it such as router. Router can act
    as a modem or gateway. Router or Gateway serve as an access point to this network(Figure1) and it is responsible for
    giving IP addresses to all devices connected to it. Switch act as a connector to other devices such as PC(Personal
    Computer) that manage the flow of data across a network. It transmit a receive data to other devices. PC Receive data
    from internet through switch that connected to router that receive data from a modem. Computer Server act as a
    controller or manage the PC in the network by allowing the user to continue using the PC.
