Computer network is a system in which multiples nodes are connected to each other’s to share
information and resources. Basically, a computer allows a sharing of resources between the
different nodes which are connected with each other to perform the specific task can also says
that the objects that are used in computer network elements are also known as computer network
elements there are also four basic computer networking elements.
1. Computers
2. Transmission medium wired or wireless
3. Protocols
4. Network software’s
Computer network
A compute network is a set of computers sharing resources located on or mainly provided by
networks nodes. The computer uses common communications protocols to communicate with
echoers these interconnections are made of telecommunications networks and technologies,
based on physically weird optical and wireless radio frequency methods that may be arranged in
a variety of network topologies. The nodes of a computer network can include personal
computers, servers, networking hardware, or there specialized or for general purpose hosts. They
are identified by network addresses, and may have hostnames. Hostnames serves as memorable
labels for the nodes, which are rarely changed after initial assignment. Network address serve for
locating and identifying the nodes by communications protocols same as the internal protocols.
Computer network maybe classified in different criteria including the transmission which
basically works to transfer the and move the signals bandwidth communication protocols or to
organize the network traffics the network size the topology, the traffic control mechanism, and
also the organizational intent.
Basically, computer network may support many network and other application and services such
as access to the world wide web digital video, digital audio, shared use of applications another
application storage server, printers, fax machines, and the use of other email and instant
application which are used for communication process.

In other words, we can say that metropolitan area network (MAN) is computer
network
That is basically larger than a single building local area network (LAN) but is
located in a single geographic area which is smaller than a wide area network
(WAN).
