Study Notes
- Network Topology
Star Topology
- In this topology, the central node manages all the functions
- All information passes through the central node
Ring Topology
- In this setup, data travels in a circular direction between nodes
- Information goes around all nodes starting from the central node
Tree Topology
- Consists of a combination of Star and Ring topologies
Mesh Topology
- A key advantage is that data can be transmitted directly from one node to another
Bus Topology
- All nodes connect directly using the same cables
