| Mesh Topology |
| Mesh topologies are also called
unconstrained or hybrid, are non-specific network configurations. The actual
connections make up the geometric shape and can vary from one implementation
to another, the resulting configuration usually being the most economical
one. Mesh topologies can be made up of point-to-point and multipoint data
links creating redundant data paths. Nodes can be routing or non-routing
depending on the topology. Performance characteristics of a mesh network utilizing adaptive routing techniques are difficult to predict and often involve complex simulation models. |
