Topology

1. A Network Topology is the physical and logical arrangement of nodes and connections in a network.

   • examples are: Star Topology, Ring Topology, Bus Topology, and a Mesh Topology

2. Advantages of a Star Topology: Very Reliable, Robust, Easy to put in.

   • Disadvantages of a Star Topology: Requires a lot of cable, Expensive, If the Hub goes down everything is down, High Maintenance

3. Advantages of a Mesh Topology: If a device is down the whole system stays on, High privacy, high security, Robust

   • Disadvantages of a Mesh Topology: Costly, Complex, Maintenace is Challenging
