Corporate Wide Area Network (WAN)

The Corporate WAN is distinguished by its physical location, which is usually off site but connected through a direct or dedicated line. The ERP (enterprise resource planning) system (e.g., SAP) will reside on the Corporate WAN or Business network. The Database Server (for the ERP interface) requires access to it, usually through the firewall.

The Corporate WAN is characterized by a slower connection. However, it is generally a stable and reliable connection.
