Local area networks require good management

Article Abstract:

Proper maintenance and management of a local area network (LAN) are essential in order to obtain an optimal return on the firm's investment. Every LAN should have a network manager responsible for it. Most LANs come with a network management system which enables managers to perform their duties from a central location. An automatic backup system is crucial and the copies should be kept in a central location. Keeping a complete inventory of computer equipment is an important managerial duty, as is having procedures in place for users to follow in case of emergencies.
