network topology

network topology

1. bus

   • a bus topology is the topology for a (LAN) - local area network in which all all clients are attached to a singular cable so if that one cable fails the whole server will but they're easy to install and dont require any expertise.

2. hybrid

   • A hybrid topology is a type of network topology that uses two or more differing network topologies. These topologies include a mix of bus topology, mesh topology, ring topology, star topology, and tree topology

3. star

   • A 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, but the benefit is that if a cable fails, only one node will be brought down

4. ring

   • A ring topology is a network configuration in which device connections create a circular data path. Each networked device is connected to two others, like points on a circle.

5. mesh

   • Mesh topology is a type of networking where all nodes cooperate to distribute data amongst each other. This topology was originally developed 30+ years ago for military applications, but today, they are typically used for things like home automation, smart HVAC control, and smart buildings.

6. Protocols

   • http
     • https
       • Hypertext Transfer Protocol Secure (HTTPS) is an extension of the Hypertext Transfer Protocol (HTTP). ... In HTTPS, the communication protocol is encrypted using Transport Layer Security (TLS), or, formerly, its predecessor, Secure Sockets Layer (SSL)
     • HTTP is based on client and server model. HTTP is used for making a connection between the web client and web server. HTTP shows information in web pages.
   • ftp
     • File transfer protocol is basically used for transferring files to different networks. There may be a mass of files such as text files, multimedia files, etc. This way of file transfer is quicker than other methods.
   • pop3
     • smtp
       • Simple mail transfer protocol manages the transmission and outgoing mail over the internet.
     • POP3 (Post Office Protocol 3) is the most recent version of a standard protocol for receiving e-mail.
   • imap
     • Short for Simple Mail Transfer Protocol, a protocol for sending e-mail messages between servers. Most e-mail systems that send mail over the Internet use SMTP to send messages from one server to another; the messages can then be retrieved with an e-mail client using either POP or IMAP
