- 1What is the definition of Topology?The pattern in which all nodes on an network are connected together.
- 2What is a Mesh Topology?Where there is no central node.
- 3What is a Star Topology?Where there is a central node.

- 5What is the definition of a Node?A device which is connected to a network.
- 6Give an example of a Node.TV, Laptop, Mobile Phone, Tablet, Games Console, Printer
- 7What are some advantages of a Star Topology?- New nodes can easily be added to the network
- Fewer data collisions happen
- Network management can be done centrally - 8What are some disadvantages of a Star Topology?- If the central point fails it affects all the nodes
- It can be expensive if you have wired networks - 9What are some advantages of a Mesh Topology?- Communications can be received more quickly
- Communications should always get through as there many possible routes
- A node should not become isolated as there are no central nodes - 10What are some of disadvantages of a Mesh Topology?- Many connections mean a lot more maintenance would be needed
