NETWORK TOPOLOGY Types of network topology : -Bus topology -Star topology -Ring topology 1. Bus topology A network setup in which each computer and network device are connected to a single cable or backbone. The following sections contain both the advantages and disadvantages of using a bus topology with your devices. Advantages of Bus topology :
Disadvantages of Bus topology:
2. Star topology Star topology are well known for their nodes being located in a shape of a star. There are one of the most commonly used computer network topologies – star network topologies. The way such networks look reminds of a star as there is a central node which is illustrated in the very middle of the network schematics and from this central hub there are other nodes all around this hub connected to it. The central hub is there to transmit the messages to the other nodes and it is the server itself when the peripheral nodes are the clients. Advantages of Star topology :
Disadvantages of Star topology:
3. Ring topology In Ring Topology, all the nodes are connected to each-other in such a way that they make a closed loop. Each workstation is connected to two other components on either side, and it communicates with these two adjacent neighbors. Data travels around the network, in one direction. Sending and receiving of data takes place by the help of TOKEN. Advantages of Ring topology:
