how and where to retrieve a resource.
The URL contains the name of the protocol needed to access a
resource, as well as a resource name.
The first part of a URL identifies what protocol to use as the primary
access medium. The second part identifies the IP address or domain
name -- and possibly subdomain -- where the resource is located.

Solution

A local area network (LAN) is a computer network that interconnects

computers within a limited area such as a residence, school, laboratory,
university campus or office building.

A wide area network (WAN) is a telecommunications network that extends

over a large geographical area for the primary purpose of computer
networking. Wide area networks are often established with leased
telecommunication circuits.

A metropolitan area network (MAN) is a computer network that

interconnects users with computer resources in a geographic region of the
size of a metropolitan area. The term MAN is applied to the
interconnection of local area networks (LANs) in a city into a single larger
network which may then also offer efficient connection to a wide area
network. The term is also used to describe the interconnection of several
local area networks in a metropolitan area through the use of point-to-point
connections between them .

A storage area network (SAN) or storage network is a computer network

which provides access to consolidated, block-level data storage. SANs are
primarily used to enhance accessibility of storage devices, such as disk
arrays and tape libraries, to servers so that the devices appear to the
operating system as locally-attached devices. A SAN typically is a
dedicated network of storage devices not accessible through the local area
network (LAN) by other devices, thereby preventing interference of LAN
traffic in data transfer.

Internet is, as its name implies, a network – a vast, global network
that incorporates a multitude of lesser networks. As such, the
Internet consists of supporting infrastructure and other technologies.
In contrast, the Web is a communications model that, through HTTP,
enables the exchange of information over the Internet. Tim Berners
