    This document discusses different network topologies. It describes the physical and logical topology of a network. The main topologies covered are bus, ring, star, and mesh. A bus topology connects all devices to a central cable backbone. A ring topology connects devices in a closed loop. A star topology connects all devices to a central hub. Finally, a mesh topology connects each device to every other device to provide redundancy. The document compares the advantages and disadvantages of each topology type.

    NETWORK TOPOLOGY

    INTRODUCTION

    A topology refers to both the physical and


    logical layout of a network. The physical
    topology of a network refers to the actual layout
    of the computer cables and other network devices.

    The logical topology of a network, on the other


    hand, refers to the way in which the network
    appears to the devices that use it.
    2

    TYPES

    Several topologies are in use for networks today.


    Some of the more common include.
    Bus

    topology

    Ring

    topology

    Star

    topology

    Mesh

    topology

    BUS TOPOLOGY

    All devices are connected to a central cable,


    called the bus or backbone.

    ADVANTAGES

    Compared to other topologies, a bus is cheap and easy


    to implement.

    Requires less cable than other topologies.

    Does not use any specialized network equipment.

    DISADVANTAGES

    There might be network disruption when computers


    are added or removed.

    Because all systems on the network connect to a single


    backbone, a break in the cable will prevent all systems
    from accessing the network.

    RING TOPOLOGY

    All devices are connected to one another in the


    shape of a closed loop, so that each device is
    connected directly to two other devices, one on
    either side of it.

    ADVANTAGES

    Cable faults are easily located, making troubleshooting


    easier.

    Ring networks are moderately easy to install.

    DISADVANTAGES

    Expansion

    to

    the

    network

    can

    cause

    network

    disruption.

    A single break in the cable can disrupt the entire


    network.

    STAR TOPOLOGY

    In the star topology, all computers and other network


    devices connect to a central device called a hub or
    switch.

    Each connected device requires a single cable to be


    connected to the hub, creating a point-to-point
    connection between the device and the hub.

    10

    STAR TOPOLOGY

    11

    ADVANTAGES

    Star networks are easily expanded without disruption


    to the network.

    Cable failure affects only a single user.

    Easy to troubleshoot and isolate problems.

    12

    DISADVANTAGES

    Requires more cable than most of the other topologies.

    A central connecting device allows for a single point of


    failure.

    More difficult than other topologies to implement.

    13

    MESH TOPOLOGY

    The mesh topology incorporates a unique network


    design in which each computer on the network
    connects to every other, creating a point-to-point
    connection between every device on the network.

    The purpose of the mesh design is to provide a


    high level of redundancy. If one network cable
    fails, the data always has an alternative path to
    get to its destination.

    14

    MESH TOPOLOGY

    15

    ADVANTAGES

    Provides redundant paths between devices

    The network can be expanded without disruption to


    current users.

    16

    DISADVANTAGES

    Requires more cable than the other LAN topologies.

    Complicated implementation.
