After reading about the Transmission Control Protocol/Internet protocol (TCP/IP) models in Chapter 1, use the ITT Tech Virtual Library to research more on TCP/IP models. Use your research to answer the following discussion questions:
Describe your experiences with both Local Area Networks (LANs) and Wide Area network (WANs). Describe any noticeable differences between the two. Also, provide at least two examples of each and how they are used in various settings.
Discuss why LAN and WAN protocols must differ.
For example why can't LAN protocols be used in WANs and vice versa?
