Example of WAN are mentioned below:

Internet: The most important type of WAN is the Internet, which is a world-wide or global network that interlinks public networks and establishes a connection between the whole world. It was developed by the U.S. Department of Defense (DoD) Advanced Research Projects Agency (ARPA). Connection to the internet is provided to the users and systems by means of Internet Service Providers (ISPs).

Intranet: An intranet functions as a private internet limited to an organization or company. The authorized users, such as a company’s employees, can access the information available on the company network via web-based technologies of the intranet. The information contained on the network can only be accessed by users that are authorized.

Extranet: An extension of the intranet to provide limited access to the company’s information to vendors, business partners, and other relevant parties. An example of this can be given through an automobile manufacturer who may use an extranet and connect to outside business partners such as parts manufacturers, distributors, and dealerships. Extranets are typically operated via the internet by using a Virtual Private Network (VPN) and other protected connections to avoid leakage of sensitive information.
