Question

Which factor you will be considering when you need to design LAN Topology​

Answer 1

1.   Budget

A rule of thumb is to never make technology procurement decisions based on price alone. There’s no denying though that you can only cut your coat according to your cloth. If a topology is unaffordable, it’s off the table no matter how perfectly suited it might be for your situation.

In any case, irrespective of what your preferred topology is, there’ll almost always be a lower-priced alternative that’s nearly as effective. On pricing matters, bus and ring topologies are quite cost-effective while star, mesh, tree and hybrid topologies are expensive.
