Which of these is NOT an advantage of a BUS network topology.
Easy to implement and add more computer systems to the network
Quick to set up - well suited for temporary networks
Cost-effective - less cabling
Data is quickly transfterred without a bottlenect - consistent data trainsfer speeds
The transmission of data is relatively simple as packets travel in one direction only
Adding additional nodes has very little impact on bandwidth
Which one of these is NOT a DISADVANTAGE of the BUS topology?
It is difficult to troubleshoot
Limited cable length and number of stations - performance degrades as additional computers are added
If there is a problem with the main cable or connection, the entire network goes down
Low security - all computers can see all data transmissions
Proper termination is required
Data collisions are more likely, which causes the network to slow down.
If any of the computer systems fail, data cannot be transmitted efficiently
To add another node you must temporarily shut down the network
Expensive to install
Extra hardware required other than cabling
Which of these is NOT an ADVANTAGE of the RING network?
Well suited for temporary networks
Cost-effective – less cabling
Data is quickly transferred without a bottleneck – consistent data transfer speeds
It prevents network collisions.
Possible to add more computer systems without taking the network down
A failure at one node or cabling will have very little effect on the network
Better security
