Computer Network Topology PPT For Thursday

Network topology refers to how devices and connections are arranged in relation to each other on a network. There are several common network topologies including bus, ring, star, mesh, tree, and hybrid. Bus topology uses a single cable backbone to connect all nodes, ring topology connects devices in a circular path, and star topology connects all nodes to a central hub or switch. Mesh topology fully or partially connects all devices, tree topology branches connections like a tree, and hybrid uses elements of multiple topologies. Each topology has advantages and disadvantages for uses like cost, cable needs, and expandability.

NETWORK TROPOLOGY

WHAT IS NETWORK TROPOLOGY?


• Network topology refers to how various nodes, devices, and
connections on your network are physically or logically arranged in
relation to each other. Think of your network as a city, and the
topology as the road map. Just as there are many ways to arrange and
maintain a city—such as making sure the avenues and boulevards can
facilitate passage between the parts of town getting the most traffic—
there are several ways to arrange a network.
HERE ARE THE KINDS OF NETWORK
TOPOLOGY
Bus Topology is a topology for a
Local Area Network (LAN) in which
all the nodes are connected to a
single cable,the cable to which the
nodes connect is called a
"backbone". If the backbone is
broken, the entire segment fails
Ring Topology is a network
configuration where device
connections create a circular data
path. Each networked device is
connected to two others, like
points on a circle. Together,
devices in a ring topology are
referred to as a ring network
Star Topology is a topology for a
Local Area Network (LAN) in which
all nodes are individually
connected to a central connection
point, like a hub or a switch. A star
takes more cable than e.g. a bus.
Mesh Topology is a network setup
where each computer and
network device is interconnected
with one another.
There are two forms of this topology: full
mesh and a partially-connected mesh
In a full mesh topology, every
computer in the network has a
connection to each of the other
computers in that network.
In a partially-connected mesh
topology, at least two of the
computers in the network have
connections to multiple other
computers in that network. It is an
inexpensive way to implement
redundancy in a network.
Tree Topology is a special type of
structure where many connected
elements are arranged like the
branches of a tree. For example,
tree topologies are frequently
used to organize the computers in
a corporate network, or the
information in a database.
Hybrid Topology is a type of
network topology that uses two or
more differing network
topologies. These topologies can
include a mix of bus topology,
mesh topology, ring topology, star
topology, and tree topology.
IN HERE IS THE ADVANTAGES AND
DISADVANTAGES OF THEM
BUS TOPOLOGY
ADVANTAGES:
It is cost effective.
Cable required is least compared
to other network topology.
Used in small networks.
It is easy to understand.
Easy to expand joining two cables
together.
