B) Asynchronous Transmission: In Asynchronous Transmission we send one start bit at the beginning and one stop bit at the end of each byte. There may be a gap between each byte. Bit stream is divided into packets. Packets are received with varying delays, so packets can arrive out of order. Some packets are not received correctly. 3. Based on Authentication: A) Peer to Peer Connection: In peer-to-peer networks, there are no dedicated servers. All the computers are equal and, therefore, are termed as peers. Normally, each computer functions as both a client and a server. No one can control the other computers. B) Server Based Connection: Most networks have a dedicated server. A dedicated server is a computer on a network which functions as a server, and cannot be used as a client or a workstation. A dedicated server is optimized to service requests from network clients. A server can control the clients for its services. 4) Based on Size: A) Local Area Networks (LAN): LAN is a small high speed network. In LAN few numbers of systems are interconnected with networking device to create network. As the distance increases between the nodes or system it speed decreases. So it is limed to few meters only. Networks which cover close geographical area. LAN used to link the devices in a single office, building or campus. It provides high speeds over short distance. Systems are connecting directly to Network. The LAN is owned by private people. Example: A computer lab in a school
