Study Notes
- Bus topologies have a simple layout in which there is a main cable connecting all of the devices in the network.
- Star topologies are easy to troubleshoot and scale, and have the advantage of one failed node not impacting the others.
- Ring topologies form a ring shape as devices connect to two other devices, and messages are sent in a unified direction.
- Mesh topology is a type of topology in which every device is connected to every other device, but partial mesh topologies exist where some devices are not connected to every other device.
