(iv) Delhi firm is planning to connect to its Marketing department in Kanpur which is approximately 300 km away. Which type of network out of LAN, WAN or MAN will be formed ? Justify your answer.
Answer
WAN (Wide Area Network) — because the network spans different geographical locations of the country (approx. 300 km apart).
Explanation
A WAN connects sites separated by large distances; LANs cover a single building/campus and MANs cover a city. 300 km between Delhi and Kanpur places this beyond both.
