Network Topology

Image
  Network topology refers to the physical or logical arrangement of devices, cables, and other components within a network. It defines how different elements are interconnected and how data flows within the network. Proper topology design is crucial for performance, scalability, reliability, and security. Here are the main types of network topologies: 1. Bus Topology Description : All devices are connected to a single central cable (the "bus"). The bus serves as a shared communication medium through which all data flows. Advantages : Simple and easy to implement. Requires less cable than other topologies. Disadvantages : If the central cable fails, the entire network is down. Performance degrades as more devices are added (due to shared bandwidth). Use Case : Smaller networks with minimal traffic. 2. Star Topology Description : All devices are connected to a central device, typically a switch or a hub. The central device manages the communication between devices. Advantages ...
