- 1TopologyComputers can be joined together in different ways. The way they are joined together is
known as topology. There are three main network topologies that we need to be aware of. - 2Types of Topology
- 3Types of Networks:Peer To Peer: In a peer to peer network, there is no central computer or data store. You may be able to
share data from one computer to another. This needs to be set up on each device and is not done centrally. Applications may be stored on different computers and accessed by all as longer as the owner gives permission. Work is backed up on individual user PCs.
In a peer to peer network you get the benefit of being able to share resources but each computer must be set up individually. This is fine for the home but becomes inefficient the more computers You have.
Client Server: client-server network has different types of computers. A powerful central computer called
a server manages the client computers the users use. The data is stored centrally. This means that
it does not matter which client computer the user logs on to they can still access all their work. - 4—
