TOPOLOGY
• Topology means the physical structure of the
network.
• Topology refer to the way in which the network
of the computer is connected.
• Network topology is the arrangement of
different host machines in a network.
• Star, ring, bus, tree, complete, irregular, hybrid
are the types of network topologies.
STAR TOPOLOGY
• A star topology, the most common network
topology, in which every node in the network is
directly connected to the central hub via coaxial
cable, twisted pair or fiber optic cable.
• Devices can only communicate with each other
indirectly through the central hub.
• Acting as a server, this central node manages data
transmission –as information Sent from the any
node on the network has to pass through the
central one to reach its destination.
• The Hub in a star network can be either active or
passive.
BUS TOPOLOGY
• Bus topology is a network type in which every
computer and network device is connected to a
single cable.
• It transmits the data from one end to another in
a single direction.
• No bi-directional feature is in bus Topoloy.
• When a node wants to send a message over the
network.it puts a message over the network.
• All the stations available in the network Will
receive the message whether it has been
addressed or not.
RING TOPOLOGY
• Ring topology is when nodes are arranged in a circle.
• The data can travel through the ring network in either one
direction or both directions with each device having exactly
two neighbors.
• Ring topology is like a bus topology,but with connected ends.
• The node that receive the message from the previous
computer will retransmit to the next node .
• The data flows in one direction .
• The data flows in a single loop continuously known as
endless loop.
• It has no terminated ends.
• The data in a ring topology flow in a clock wise direction.
TREE TOPOLOGY
• The tree topology combines the characteristics of bus
topology and star topology.
• A tree topology is a type of structure in which all the
computers are connected with each other in
hierarchical fashion.
• The top most node in tree topology is known as a root
node. And All other nodes are the descendants of the
root node.
• There is only one path exist between two nodes for the
data transmission.thus,it forms a parent-child hierarchy.
• Tree topology has at least three level of hierarchy.
• Tree topology is applied in wide area network.
COMPLETE TOPOLOGY/MESH TOPOLOGY
• Complete topology is also known as mesh topology.
• Mesh topology is an arrangement of the network in
which computers are interconnected with each other
through various redundant connections.
• There are multiple paths from one computer to
another computer.
• It does not contain switch, hub or any central
computer which acts as a central point of
communication.
• Mesh topology is point to point connection.
• Mesh topology has two techniques for transmission of
data routing and flooding.
IRREGULAR TOPOLOGY
• Irregular topology means to connect the node or
computer in any arbitrary fashion is called
irregular topology.
• In irregular, devices are connected with each
other irregularly in the network.
• Irregular topology means which is not in graph
structure.
• It has no fix structure.
• Irregular topology are used in larger WAN and in
internets.
HYBRID TOPOLOGY
• The combination of various different topologies is
known as hybrid topology.
• A hybrid topology is a connection between
different links and nodes to transfer the data.
• When two or more different topologies are
combined together is termed as hybrid topology
and if similar topologies are connected with each
other will not result in hybrid topology.
• For example,if there exists a ring topology in one
branch of ICICI Bank and bus topology in another
branch of ICICI Bank, connecting these two
topologies will result in hybrid topology.
