DEFINITION
The physical topology of a network refers to the configuration of cables, computers and other peripherals.

TYPES OF NETWORK TOPOLOGY
Bus network.
Ring network.
Star network.

BUS TOPOLOGY
All computers and devices connected to central cable or bus.
Consists of a main run of cable with a terminator at each end.
Popular on LANs because they are inexpensive and easy to install.

RING TOPOLOGY
Cable forms closed ring or loop, with all computers and devices arranged along ring.
Data travels from device to device around entire ring, in one direction.
Primarily is used for LANs, but also is used in WANs.

STAR TOPOLOGY
All devices connect to acentral device, calledhub.
All data transferredfrom one computer toanother passes through hub.

In the mesh topology each computer are connected with each other by separate cable. Create point to point connection to every device on network. If one cable fail data always has alternative path to get to its destination.
On a large scale, you can connect multiple LANs using mesh topology with leased line.
This type topology generally use in military area.

DIFFERENTIATION BETWEEN THE THREE TYPES OF NETWORK TOPOLOGY
![Page 15: Basic Concepts of Computer Networks and Network Topology](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062410/56816385550346895dd46f50/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
SUMMARY BUS TOPOLOGY
DEFINITION• All computers and
devices connected to central cable
ADVANTAGE• Easy to connect a computer
or peripheral to a linear bus. • Requires less cable length
than
a star topology.
DISADVANTAGE
• Entire network shuts down if there is a break in the main cable. • Terminators are required at
both ends of the backbone cable. • Difficult to identify the
problem if the entire network shuts down.

SUMMARY RING TOPOLOGY
DEFINITION• Cable forms closed
ring or loop, with all computers and devices arranged along ring.
ADVANTAGE• Data is quickly transferred
without a ‘bottle neck’.
• The transmission of data is relatively
simple as packets travel in one direction only.
DISADVANTAGE
• Data packets must pass through every computer
between the sender and recipient therefore, this makes it slower. • If any of the nodes fail then the
ring is broken and data cannot be
transmitted successfully. • It is difficult to troubleshoot the ring.

SUMMARY
DEFINITION• All devices connect
to a central device, called hub.
ADVANTAGE• Easy to install and wire.
• Security can be implemented in the hub/switch.
DISADVANTAGE• Requires more cable length than a linear topology.
If the hub or concentrator fails, nodes attached are disabled.
More expensive than linear bus topologies because of the cost of the concentrators.
STAR TOPOLOGY
• Easy to detect faults and to remove parts

1.Provide redundant path between device.
SUMMARY
DEFINITION
• In the mesh topology each computer are connected with each other by separate cable..
ADVANTAGE
• 1.Provide redundant path between device..
The network can be expanded without disruption to current user..
DISADVANTAGERequire more cable then other topology .
Complicated implementations.
