NETWORK TOPOLOGY

MEST:The devices are connected with many redundant interconnections between network nodes.
STAR: Devices are connected to a central computer,called a hub. The main disagvantage is that the hub represents a single point of failure.
BUS: A bus is the central cable that connects all the devices on a local-area network. The bus can only transmit data in one direction, and if any network segments is not working, all network transmission ceases.
RING: All of the nodes are connected in a closed loop. Message travel around the ring.If the ring breaks at a particular link then the transmission can be sent via the reserve path thereby ensuring that all nodes are connected in casa of a single failured.
TREE: groups of star-configured networks are connected to a linear bus backbone cable.
HYBRID: Combine 2 or more topoliesin such a way that the resulting network does not exhibit one of the standard topologies.
LINE: In this system,data is sent to all nodes on the network at the same time. If the bus breaks at a linksome nodes will result out of the network.
