Answers
A network setup where each of the computers and network devices are interconnected with one another, allowing for most transmissions to be distributed, even if one of the connections go down. This topology is not commonly used for most computer networks as it is difficult and expensive to have redundant connection to every computer. However, this topology is commonly used for wireless networks. Below is a visual example of a simple computer setup on a network using a mesh topology.
Advantages of Mesh topology
Data can be transmitted from different devices simultaneously. This topology can withstand high traffic.
Even if one of the components fails there is always an alternative present. So data transfer doesn’t get affected.
Expansion and modification in topology can be done without disrupting other nodes.
Disadvantages of Mesh topology
There are high chances of redundancy in many of the network connections.
Overall cost of this network is way too high as compared to other network topologies.
Set-up and maintenance of this topology is very difficult. Even administration of the network is tough.
