Network Topology
This
is the physical connection of the computer in a network environment.
Ways of Network Topology
1.
Tree
network: In a tree network, all the computers in a network are
connected to the host in a tree form. In this arrangement, if computer 2 breaks
down, computer 3 cannot have access to the host computer, and if computer 1
breaks down, the remaining computers in the network cannot have access to the
host computer.
2. Star network: In a star network, each computer has a direct access to the host computer. If any computer in the network breaks down, others still have access to the host computer.
3.
Ring
network: In a ring network, each computer has access to any other
computer in the network bi-directionally. If for example computer 3 breaks
down, computer 4 can have access to the computer 2 through computer 1, and if
computer 1 breaks down, computer 4 can still have access to computer 2 through
computer 3.
