A LAN (Local Area Network) is a network that connects computers and devices within a limited geographic area, such as a home, office, or building. The key characteristics are close physical proximity and shared network infrastructure. MAC refers to a hardware address, not a network type. Peer-to-peer and client/server describe network architecture models (how devices relate to each other), not geographic scope.
