Local area network (LAN). Computer and Network Examples

Local Area Network (LAN) is a network which consists of computers and peripheral devices connected each other and to the local domain server, and covers a little territory or small number of buildings, such as home, school, laboratory, office, etc. LAN serves for few hundreds of users. It includes many cables and wires, and demands to design previously a Network diagram. All local area network devices can use the shared printers and disk storage. ConceptDraw DIAGRAM is a perfect network diagramming software with examples of LAN Diagrams, templates and predesigned vector objects. ConceptDraw DIAGRAM is the ideal choice for network engineers and network designers who need to draw fast and easy Local Area Network Diagrams, for IT specialists, developers and other IT professionals which need to visualize the communication schemes of LAN and visually document the LAN's physical structure and arrangement in houses, offices and other buildings. Ready-to-use vector objects from Computer Network Diagrams solution will help you design LAN diagrams in minutes.

Design easily the 3D diagrams of any types and styles, freely combine the 3D objects in any way you desire.

Network Configuration

Network configuration is a method of connecting computers among themselves, also known as a network topology. Three main types of connections are the most commonly used: Bus, Ring, Star. Before network design and purchase of necessary network equipment, it is necessary to consider all details, carefully examine the conditions, in which a given network will be exploited and certainly to draw a diagram of future network with all its parameters. The scheme can be designed manually on a paper, but it is better to apply a special software, such as ConceptDraw DIAGRAM diagramming and vector drawing software supplied with Computer Network Diagrams solution. Use of predesigned network icons from the libraries of Computer Network Diagrams solution, also built-in templates, samples and examples, is helpful to develop and represent network architecture, topology and design, and to make with ease professional-looking Network configuration diagrams and Network topology diagrams for LANs and WANs, to design Wired and Wireless computer communication networks, Mobile and Vehicle nets, IVR systems, etc.

Active Directory Diagram

Active Directory (AD) is a directory management service introduced by Microsoft Corporation for Windows domain networks. This service uses the Lightweight Directory Access Protocol (LDAP) and provides quick access to the included information about large structural units such as domains, organizational units, sites, and also about simple objects, such as users names with detailed information about them - contacts information, access rights, etc. Active Directory Diagram is a representation of the network structure in clear graphical format. It is a scheme of correlations of service components with preset degree of detailed elaboration. Active Directory Diagram makes the work of network administrators with Active Directory network structure more easy and convenient, allows plan and service the network quicker and more qualitatively. The help of ConceptDraw DIAGRAM software extended with Active Directory Diagrams solution from the Computer and Networks area is indispensable for easily and quickly creation the highly detailed Active Directory Diagrams.
