Q How have LAN technologies changed since their inception in the 1980s? Consider hardware, software, and operational aspects of LANs. What might be the next step in the evolution of LAN technology?
A Local Area Network (LAN) can be defined as the group of computers connected to a server through a share communication wire or a wireless network (Rouse, 2017). While selecting a proper LAN technology, a user should consider different factors like the cost efficiency, performance, and maintainability. The LAN technology has developed at a rapid pace from 1990. Some of the innovation in the LAN technology in the last couple of decades includes the full-duplex Ethernet, Gigabit Ethernet, Asynchronous Transfer Mode, and VoIP. Full-Duplex Ethernet has enabled to develop the communication at a rate faster than 10-Mbps and that has significantly changed the global networking scenario
