28. Internetwork
 An Internetwork is the connection of two or more
distinct computer networks or network segments
via a common routing technology.
 Any interconnection among or between public,
private, commercial, industrial, or governmental
networks may also be defined as an
internetwork.

29. InternetworkInternetwork
 Intranet
 An intranet is a set of networks, using the Internet Protocol and IP-based tools
such as web browsers and file transfer applications, that is under the control of a
single administrative entity.
 Most commonly, an intranet is the internal network of an organization
 Extranet
 An extranet is a network or internetwork that is limited in scope to a single
organization or entity but which also has limited connections to the networks of
one or more other usually, but not necessarily, trusted organizations or entities
 by definition, an extranet cannot consist of a single LAN; it must have at least
one connection with an external network.
 Internet
 The Internet consists of a worldwide interconnection of governmental, academic,
public, and private networks based upon the networking technologies of the
Internet Protocol Suite.
 The Internet is also the communications backbone underlying the World Wide
Web (WWW).
