Summary
• Network is a system of information resources and productivity tools
• Invented because they enable users to share information and information resources over short and long distances
• Networks are designed in standardized topologies (bus, star, and ring)

Summary (continued)
• Bridges, switches, and routers can be employed for network security
• LANs are smaller networks
• WANs are long-distance networks
• Dial-up access with communications protocols, such as SLIP and PPP
• PPP is most commonly used because it can transport a combination of protocols
