DEFINITION

What is a Topology ?

The physical topology of a network refers to the configuration of cables, computers and other peripherals.


TYPES OF NETWORK TOPOLOGY

Three commonly used network topologies are:-

Bus network.

Ring network.

Star network.


BUS TOPOLOGY

All computers and devices connected to central cable or bus.

Consists of a main run of cable with a terminator at each end.

Popular on LANs because they are inexpensive and easy to install.


BUS TOPOLOGY


RING TOPOLOGY

Cable forms closed ring or loop, with all computers and devices arranged along ring.

Data travels from device to device around entire ring, in one direction.

Primarily is used for LANs, but also is used in WANs.


RING TOPOLOGY


STAR TOPOLOGY

All devices connect to acentral device, calledhub.

All data transferredfrom one computer toanother passes through hub.

ADVANTAGE DISADVANTAGE

1) Easy to connect computer or peripheral to a linear bus.

1) Entire network shuts down if there is a break in the main cable.

2) Requires less cable length than a star topology.

2) Terminators are required at both ends of the backbone cable.

3) Difficult to identify the problem if the entire network shuts down.

BUS




1) Data is quickly transferred without a ‘bottle neck’.

1) Data packets must pass through every computer

between the sender and recipient therefore, this makes it slower.

2) The transmission of data is relatively simple as packets travel in one direction only.

2) If any of the nodes fail then the ring is broken and data cannot be

transmitted successfully. 3) It is difficult to troubleshoot the ring.

RING




1) Easy to install and wire. 1) Requires more cable length

than a linear topology.

2) Security can be implemented in the hub/switch.

2) If the hub or concentrator fails, nodes attached are disabled.

3) Easy to detect faults and to remove parts.

3) More expensive than linear bus topologies because of the

cost of the concentrators.
