NETWORK TOPOLOGY
DEFINITION
THE LAYOUT OF THE COMPUTERS AND DEVICES IN A COMMUNICATION NETWORK

TYPES OF NETWORK TOPOLOGY


BUS NETWORK
RING NETWORK
STAR NETWORK
PHYSICAL TOPOLOGY
consist of a single central cable (backbone) to which all computer and other device connect
PHYSICAL TOPOLOGY
all the computers and other devices on the network connect to central device(hub/switch) thus forming a star.
PHYSICAL TOPOLOGY
a cable forms a closed loop with all computers and devices arranged along the ring
LOGICAL TOPOLOGY
it transmit data, instructions and information (dii) as aseries of signal in both direction where all nodes receive the signal but only the intended recipient will accept and the rest will ignore.
LOGICAL TOPOLOGY
dii transfer from one node to another node passes through hub/switch
LOGICAL TOPOLOGY
data transmitted from devices to another decives around the entire ring, in one direction until it reach its destination using token
ADVANTAGES
DISAVANTAGES
-inexpensives and easy to install
-if one device fails it does not affect the others
-network will malfunction if the backbone is damaged
-difficult to identify thee problem if network shut down

ADVANTAGES
DISAVANTAGES
-easy to troubleshoot
-if one device fail, the others will not affected
-network will be malfunction if the hub/switch break down
-required more cable
ADVANTAGES DISAVANTAGES
-cable faults are easy located
-data packet are flowing in one direction at high speed
-span larger distance but more diificult to install
-network malfunction if the cable break down
