Tree topology, also known as hierarchical topology, is a network configuration that combines characteristics of both star and bus topologies. In a tree topology, devices are organized in a hierarchical structure, with multiple levels of connectivity. It is commonly used in large-scale networks, such as corporate networks and wide area networks (WANs), to efficiently manage […]
Mesh topology is a network configuration in which every device is connected directly to every other device in the network. In a mesh network, the term “mesh” describes the intricate web of connections that result from this direct, point-to-point connectivity. Mesh topology offers high redundancy, fault tolerance, and reliability but can be complex and expensive […]
Ring topology is a network configuration in which each device is connected to exactly two other devices, forming a circular or ring-like structure. Data in a ring topology travels in a unidirectional or bidirectional manner around the ring until it reaches its intended recipient. This topology is less common than star or bus topologies but […]
Network topology refers to the physical or logical layout or configuration of devices, connections, and nodes in a computer network. Different network topologies have their advantages and disadvantages, and the choice of topology depends on factors such as the network’s intended use, scalability, fault tolerance, and cost. Here are some common network topologies: Selecting the […]
