define bus, mesh,star, ring topology in networking
Answers
Explanation:
"In star topology all the cables run from the computers to a central location, where they all are connected to a device called HUB."
1. BUS TOPOLOGY :
STRUCTURE of Bus Topology
A star topology is designed with each node (file server, workstations, and peripherals) connected directly to a central network hub, switch, or concentrator.
Data on a star network passes through the hub, switch, or concentrator before continuing to its destination. The hub, switch, or concentrator manages and controls all functions of the network. It also acts as a repeater for the data flow. This configuration is common with twisted pair cable; however, it can also be used with coaxial cable or fiber optic cable.
"Ring topology looks like the bus topology with connected ends.
But In functionality it is different."
